It's looking good Tony, nice work with the canopy and not that it's much good to you, but I have a spare compressor having just bought a new one with an air tank.

The compressor might come in this afternoon, but I'm leaving on vacation Thursday and have to get ready for that so at this point even if I get my hands on it today I will probably not have time to get it hooked up and get some painting done, but I'm going to try. It would be nice to get the base coat of silver on so it has a week to completely cure wile I'm away before I start masking over it.

 

[Crimea_River]

Looking better all the time.

 

[Airframes]

Sure is, and I'm still gob-smacked at how small it is!!

 

[vikingBerserker]

I'm really liking this one, nicely done!

 

[Wayne Little]

Can't wait to see some paint on it....looking good so far!

 

[Catch22]

Finally got an internet hook up at a new hotel and was able to check in.
I'll be home this weekend and will hopefully have my new compressor by Monday and so will be painting by early next week.

When you live in the land of the hippocrocofrog even a cartoon fairy starts to look good.

Also looking forward to seeing it painted

 

[Airframes]

[Lucky13]

Ahum....

 

[T Bolt]

Still no compressor!!!!! They told me it was going to come today but it didn't!! I'm considering getting a bunch of helium balloons

 

[Airframes]

It's a pain waiting for stuff to arrive. I sent a parcel to Igor on June 18th, and was told it would take four working days. It still hasn't arrived! And one of the kits in it is supposed to be for this GB !!
Hope it arrives soon Glenn, meanwhile,you could use a car/truck inner tube.......
