that is really nicely done Glenn, you have a knack of making it difficult to guess the scale of your builds, once the paint is on !
Thanks Karl, that's a great complement

I did the panel lines last night using black tempera paint. First two pictures are before the wipe off (which is always scary) and the third is after, ready for the dull coat.

I came down with a very very mild case of covid Thursday (felt like a head cold) so it gave me some extra time at the bench while isolating.

Here the dull cote has been sprayed on, the closed canopy which I was using as a mask taken off and the open canopy parts painted and installed

The landing gear, prop, and rear view mirror installed and its pretty much finished. I'll take the final pictures after a bit of touch-up here and there.
