  3. well here where i stand, there wont be much done i the next few days as i start nights tonight - wings painted, ready for varnish, then decals - main body is under going masking of the windows using valejo masking fluid (this is new to me as i norm use maskol) you will notice i pre painted the area black so i dont have to be 100% accurate with the masking i plan to finish each part, then when decals varnished and weathered bring the wings and body together
  4. Thanks ive only gone and done the bottom of one wing as well, i put too much paint in the airbrush, so i did the bottom so i didnt waste it
  5. Well once i got that far i thought id experiment further, now i have placing decals on especially the long thin ones, so ive opted to mask them and paint them and heres the result
