Thanks Guys, much appreciated, bit more paint done today but no camera so pics tomorrow.....had a little issue with airbrush not wanting to play right on Wednesday so stopped that session, better today....
Not sure about what i may do tomorrow, pretty busy day to tie things up to start 2 weeks holiday....AND then see my new baby granddaughter born yesterday..
 
Thanks Vic yes 2 now and a cutie like her sister....

Now back to modelling...got the airbrush functioning again so painted the Upper colours of the Mk.VC first and then added some of the Ocean Grey to the Mk.IX....
Even though they look ok, not entirely happy with both Mk.V colours, Green a little too bright and brown a little too light.....probably alter them with a little overspray....



 
well I apologise for the confusion Andy not my intention, I started the Mk.Vc well after the Mk.IX Primary GB build and just decided to run it in the thread rather than a second GB entry, it went together rather quickly and caught up to the GB build....

So....Dk green started on the Mk.IX delayed slightly as I was reviewing the camo scheme and colours applied...
In the mean time pressed on and improved the colours on the Mk.Vc and masked the leading edges for the white to be applied...

 
Thanks Guys.....work continues..... finished the dark green, like Andy's Bird this is over an hour and half's work to get tight and right... with further added time to touch up spots....this bird does have a couple of Lighter Grey areas done to cover the original roundels....
Pastel work has now also been done.....
