    Didn't even put the film on I had planned to watch. Devotion, that one with the Corsairs, and then tomorrow I was going to watch Midway........just to get in the mood for the Carrier GB.

        The kit looks to have some nice details….I was surprised to see the hull made up like that but you seemed to have it licked into shape :thumb2:
        Very little effort on my part, so well engineered it's hard to go wrong, would recommend it as a beginner friendly build any day. The only slightly tricky bit was the cupola, I diverged from the instruction a touch there to make sure it lined up 100%.

          Looks like I'm for the bar the rest of the night......
          Need to get it home to match up the Legend Stowage kit.

                    Only when it's finished.
                    I have some AM for that kit, sold the kit a while back but not the AM stuff.
                    Once I'm home I'll let you know what if you're interested.

                                Home safe and sound, time to have a look at this resin stowage.
                                Plenty there, though it's not all getting used. Legend would have you leave off the stowage bins on the fenders, but I've already glued them in place.
                                A few of the jerry can handles have broken, I might use the plastic ones from the kit if they fit, I mean all 1/35 jerry cans are the same size, right?
                                Some casting blocks to remove and some arranging to see what I like them it's time for the paint shop.
