Here is my recent build

Cockpit installed

I decided with this kit to mask and paint the invasion stripes as i think they look better i normally start painting them before i add the cammo

All major airframe parts all painted in base colours now ready for post shadding

A coat of Future added and decals done and a pin was done

Canopy masked and starting on painting under carridge prop and bombs etc

All matt clear coat applied and ready for wings to be added

Final pictures a very nice kit indead a joy to make and looks stunning

Just waiting on a hobby master carrier deck base to arrive in post to finish her off

Thanks for taking time to read hope u all enjoy looking at the build as much as i enjoyed building it
