Thanks Guys,
Bill I normally use Tamiya extra thin VERY carefully.... and on the odd occasion Super glue in the right places to avoid the fogging that can come with using it.

Well, left my camera at work, so no pics....been struggling with the right colours....and getting my matches right, have done the lower surface Blue...twice...as first coat seemed not quite right, added more white to lighten the colour and a bit happier...I think.
Next colour i am also wondering about as there seems to be some variation here as well to contend with.
Clearly at this point i'm not going to be done by Sunday...

As i said the Lower surface Blue is done and today i started the first of the upper surface colours, the Lt Greyish Brown. couple of touch up points to deal with after putting on the brown and some how the top rear fuselage seam has split open about 30mm must have stressed it somehow. anyway reglued it and fix it over the weekend.

Thanks..!
Ok, think iv'e got the few issues resolved, the main one being the rear fuselage spine, will recoat it tomorrow. In the mean time i did the spinners and white wing stripes, seeing as though i need to redo the brown anyway....i can mask the white and paint over the top.
