          Just had a catch up, Mark. Very nice model, indeed. I'm amused by those details and your results.
          My only and absolutely positive experience with Eduard ProfiPack is in 1/72, but it seems that even in 1/48 they are producing very high standard kits.
          Hope my wallet will resist... I have too many already started projects...:rolling:

                  Been plugging away at the decals, just a couple more to do now, remembered its gonna need some exhausts so made a start by by drilling them out and hoping that drill was going in dead straight! Luckily it did .Click image for larger version

                        Looking good Mark. She was a stunner before the decals but now they're on she really pops. Well done drilling the exhausts - 12 out of 12 :tongue-out3:

                            Need a gloss coat to seal in the decals but looking at the wing tanks thought i would get them done first ,the mounts are some etch pieces of which are the only option then realising they are going to be fragile expecially when the tanks are mounted ,the only way im not gonna keep knocking them off i was to fit the landing gear,did want to do this after all the painting was complete but hey ho! A little scrape with a blade here and there and there in. Moral of this story is to attach the tanks to the pylons first then fit to the wing.......as per instructions :rolling: Click image for larger version

                              Superb detailing Mark. Love those tank mounts, that’s something that etch does really well.

                                The slip marks on the main mount is a nice touch as well :thumb2:
