Thanks Guys another period of not much modelling and then my second grandaughter turned One on Friday so that has been a very pleasant distraction for a few days...:)

In any case what I have achieved since the last post all happened today..! Bomb racks assembled and fitted and painted, A light Panel line process all over the bird, a gloss coat and a flat coat to put me in a good home stretch position.

Well....getting there....even though I have been pretty busy.....

Masks are off the canopies, added the deflectors to the rear canopy, added the rear Gunners seat assembly with seat belts.
painted the Bombs and rack too fitted them in place then couldnt get it back out again...so it stays as is.
