I haven’t done much over the last 3 weeks, other than started with the engine recesses, waiting several days for each paint part to dry before continuing. Made up for it this weekend, screwed all the top panels in, except the cone section, and finished the damages hull section from light bleed. I have also finished the engine recesses, maybe a little more tweak once I’ve fitted them.
Cheers for looking MarkMarkwarren attached the following image(s):

Mark waiting to see your latest I saw were you posted that you received up to issue 72 (I think it said). I received almost all of issues up to issue 68 in the batch buy that I did they failed to ship months 6, 7, 9 and 14 so there are 16 missing issue for some reason month 7 is on back order so I will be waiting a while for it. They shipped the other issues, so I am waiting for those. The unfortunate thing is I just received my self assembly 3D printer for a Kickstarter that I funded, so I need to built that as well along with the green house that I am building for my wife. So I have a pretty busy schedule of things to do. I have most of the metal frame assembled and I am going to spray it flat black then I am going to paint all of the skin with the Tamiya Insignia White and begin the real painting after that.

Whilst waiting for the next batch to arrive, I have been painting all the detail piping parts, which has taken a few weeks, ready to apply to the hull sections and then finally add fine detail to them. I have nearly finished the antenna, will post pics later when finished, but here are a few pictures for now, where I have put some pipework to the hull section. Thanks for looking. Mark

So, whilst still waiting for the next batch, I’m building the hold pit and rear room in the hold area, although I have lots of little bits to do. As stated in my last post, I’ve now posted some pictures of the antenna array which I’ve now finished, some close up shots as well as what it looks like on the hull. Lots of fine detail still to do, but it gives some idea on how it all coming together. Thanks for looking

I'm thinking that I like the top more than the bottom. Looks great.

Many thanks for all the kind comments, getting quite excited now its all coming together, although still loads to do. I left out a picture from my last post with the antenna in place. So here goes.
Keep up all the good work guys.Markwarren attached the following image(s):
