Well I watched the footie! Good result ;-)

Just put the last of the decals on, and given them a sposh of Sol.

Tomorrow, I will try not to naff it up with some clear coat!

No picutres ... ok just a couple. The light is at the end of the tunnel and this bird has flown. Landing soon in the finished section.

Thanks Scott. My first jet too, sounds odd but I still think an Airplane should have a prop at the pointy end. LOL.

There are a few others that could temp me, however trying to find them is proving a pain in the bum! BAC Jaguar in 1/48 and a good Electric Lightning in 1/48. Also a Harrier in 1/48 could find its way into the stash.

Right now the panther is sitting in the drying bin (!) waiting for the clear to dry. Spent the rainy morning puting all the knock off's on and painting them, together with a few touch ups and detail painting.

So this bird is out of here and will land in the planes section. Probably tomorrow after work.

Thanks for all the hints and tips.

By the way, If any one is considering this kit, there are a few things in the instructions that are, erm, wronge! Drop me a line and I'll fill you in on the bits that are misleading. thus avoiding the same pit falls I found.

Ian, Derek is right. This is a fine addition to your collection and will stand out on your shelf!
