Loads of flash on this old kit.

Little windows behind the cockpit were fiddly but ok. Tested fuselage halves and the fit looks good.

Ordered new decals as these 50yo ones are so faded. Plus I read that they no longer stick well. Only AU$15.50. The fuselage halves have gone together quite nicely with some masking tape while they set.

Fuselage, wings and prop together and the fit is pretty good for a 50yo kit. Currently mixing the three camouflage colours + underside. I'm making my own mixes based on photos. I'm pretty happy with them now and resisting the urge to make them too colourful.

Snapped one of the exhausts sanding it! Fortunately all OK and safely onto the fuselage but my manual dexterity is almost as bad now as my eyes. Safe to say none of my builds will be photographed for this site!

Camouflage paint coats going on, liking the colours.

It's done. A lot went wrong but I've learned, or re-learned in the process.
