Thanks guys

The panel line work has been completed. I used thinned tempera paint this time, applied with a very thin brush and wiped after dry.

Thanks :)

Did a bit of work on it today before work tonight (2nd shift) but didn't have time for pictures. Got the nose guns in and the gear legs glued on along with the tail wheel.
Pictures tomorrow (working 3rd shift) and hope to get the wheels, gear covers and exhaust done which should only leave the final pictures.
 
Main gear wheels and covers installed

Exhaust stacks drilled out painted and glued on after some unexpected trimming, The base was way too big for the slot it was supposed to fit in and it had a tab instead of a peg to fit the hole in the kit.
Also the prop on but not glued, I think I will leave it not glued.

Now comes the really hard part, cleaning off my work bench so I can take the final pictures.
