Well, I'm calling this one done. The final work done since the last photos is listed below:

- not really work but somehow I manged to catch the wing to tail antenna wires and overstretched them. Fortunately they didn't break but they hang kinda loose now. May fix later.
- Gunsight crosshairs and bead added from Eduard PE
- Pitot tube added and painted.
- A last placard added in the port side of the pit.
- Drybrushed some weathering using lightened camo colours randomly applied
- Lightly brushed on some white pastel chalk to get more of a dusty look, especially on the blue of the roundels.
- Dabbed some DullCoat onto the dusty areas where hands and feet would have touched
- Added a bit more silver pencil paint wear on the spinner nose

I'll just post the last batch of pics with no words in between. You'll be able to see some of the above work. Thanks to everyone for following my build and for your comments and support.

I appreciate that Matt, thanks. There were a couple of close-ups though that revealed some issues that I had to fix and then retook the pictures. Example, the one of the gunsight from the front is take 2 as the first one showed me a bit of paint outside of the winscreen frame that should not have been there. A light scrape with a toothpick remedied that.
