So far...

The kit has a lot of very small PE parts. As an elderly builder, seeing them, cutting and handling them is difficult, so will be leaving them off.

OK guys, just a couple more..

The cockpit screen is just a plastic moulding, that includes various other screens, indifferent sizes,and shapes.

I can now do some painting prior to the decals, there are a few colours/decals in the kit. I have some military colours, the darkish green, but the light brown I haven't got but a sand colour shouldn't look too bad.

Paint update! Although sludgy, after an injection of new clear acrylic thinners and a stir, the Revel Acrylic cube paint pots are resurrected! This may be the one and only camo coat! Other small parts to be painted prior to decaling.

Yes I've decided the 'used look' is better!

Thanks Eugene, yes that was a spray job, one a few left from Plasti-Kote. Perhaps, the 'used' look is best?
