Thanks guys. Doing lil bits and, as always building up courage to use the airbrush. Oil cooler, three small parts to glue together; one done

​

As mentioned, nothing to be seen of the engine, press fit for testing

Thanks all. The whiteness undercoat for red and yeller. For some reason I have two and a half bottles of Tamiya Lemon Yellow. I added .2ml of Tamiya Red to the half bottle and this will be my ID Yellow for those pesky British/Japanese leading edge markings. Other colours to be sprayed after the Jays game

Good idea about mixing up a large batch of those yellows. I din't think I've ever used the Tamiya XF-3 straight.

Thanks guys. Colour....

​

That little kink mid way down the left wing is actually a blanking insert; one of the kit options didn't use a landing light so I used it to "mask" of the light area

Looks great George, lovely strong yellow and a good use of the surplus and extra paints that we always seem to accumulate.
