    Well I'm calling this one done, a nice little new tool and build from Airfix.

    That looks very nice indeed.

    Could i ask please what do you use for colouring the panel lines? Yours looks really good and just done right.

      Beautiful job ian , superbly painted and weathered , the washes and panel lines look spot on - not too stark but just visible. Nice base too ( although i think the runways in need of resurfacing!) cheers tony

          Superb job Ian. I'm not a lover of jets, but I love this!

          ....Oh, and don't let Tony slate you about the base......Stone me, see what I wrote there?

            Lovely build nicely weathered and a great paint job.
            I still have to drag mine out from the bottom of the stash pile

                Thanks Tony, I used these thinned down with odourless thinners as a pin wash.

                Black on top, Starship filth underneath.

                    But anyway, back to the build. Really nice with a great finish. All looks spot on.

                      Looks very nice Ian.
                      The camouflage paintwork is excellent!

                            Great build Ian. This is a really nice looking aircraft, and you've achieved a nice finish. Kit looks to be one to look out for!
