Thanks Keith!
Got the yellow lower cowling and rudder painted, mixed from Humbrol Yellow 24 with a tiny spot of red. Some light panel line work has been done, in pencil, and some staining and dirt, using mixed pastels, as shown in PICS 1 to 3.
PIC 4 shows the model with the first coat of clear gloss. After a second coat, some paint scuffing and light weathering will be added, and then it's time for the decals, followed by the addition of all the larger bits and pieces, before spraying a couple of coats of semi-matt clear and adding the canopy sections and smaller items.
