Thankyou all for the kind comments.

The blue for the tail was a best guess - the original blue was hand mixed apparently and could vary in shade.

Plugging away. Windscreen added and camo adjusted on flaps. More to follow.

Decals still drying and need some work. The upper wing roundels are out of register as is the fin flash - pondering options.

I agree. The decals don't look bad from here. Option, short of replacing them, would be to give them another good coat of gloss, then with a very low-tack tape, mask the areas that are out of register and paint the background colour.

Looks good, and I agree with Andy. can't see the out of register on the roundels, and only just noticeable on the fin flash. Shouldn't be too difficult to correct.
