Hi Mark,

Nice work Mark and that Eduard photo etch really makes it all stand out, well worth it, plus the fact that you know it's there will make you enjoy your build more.

Looking forward to your next post.

Regards

Hi Everyone.
Please could someone help me out.
In the 2nd pic the instructions ask for this colour on the cockpit floors but in the book it depicts a light grey ( pics 3 and 4 ). I am unsure what colour to use.
Any help or advise greatly received.
Best regards to all and thanks for looking in.

Hi Everyone BigGrin.
I have repainted the cockpit floors and would like to know anyone's thoughts on these 2 colours. Which one people prefer pic 1 or pic 2.
Best regards to all.

Nice work so far Mark, looking good. I think the paler of the two colours looks more of a match with the real thing:

http://www.bing.com/imag...bcb860f1bH0&first=1

Might be worth using the paler colour overall and then picking out the odd panel with the darker grey, just to break up the overall grey tone of the cockpit?

Nice progress, well done.

Hi Kev.
Thanks for looking in and I think you maybe right as I think that the darker grey all over is a bit to dark and does not feel right so I will re paint and see how it looks.
Thanks for the link.
Best regards.

Hi Everyone.
Here is the next instalment of my build.
I decided to have a go at the Bomb bay and fuel tank doors which took a bit of work to get the ejector pin marks filled and to fit the wires in between the centre arms of the doors but I think it does look a lot better and once undercoated and sprayed the top colour on will look great.
Best regards to all.
