Coming along well Phil. Nice to see someone still use squadron green. So many options these days on paints, fillers, glues it gets so confusing but still like the squadron products. Just wish they made them in smaler sizes as i always seem to find mine ghave totallt dried out when i need to use them? Hope it all continues well for you. Tony Happy Modelling

Those bolts look useful Phil. Another manufacturer i have not come across. You are building a good collection of parts now so you should have an outstanding build once it all starts going together. Tony Happy Modelling
