Thanks all. Hopefully I'll get those fiddly bits done this weekend and have Miss D finalize and photographed for next week.

Thanks goodness for toothpicks. without them I would never even try to get the fiddly parts done!

That's a psychedelic airplane!

Nice job. Many thanks for sharing your experience in building it. I hope to have photos of my L-20 and M-37 up soon.

Tim,
Have you ever tried Future acrylic floor polish? I have had good luck with that to give a model a sheen. It takes a few coats. I have aplied it with a brush, but I think it works with a pump spray bottle too. If you try it I would suggest that you spray a piece of printed waste cardstock first to make sure it will not make your ink run.

You have inspired me with your build. I think I will have a go at a Hunter this week.

Nice job! Colourful, too! Just got my own Sultan of Oman's Hunter and a couple of Beavers. Plus penguins! Look very nice! Just waiting for those extra hours to be added into each day!
Maybe if I'm lucky, they'll eventually do the 'Raspberry Ripple' T.7 scheme!

Oh wow man, the colors, the colors. I have to admit that in the '70's that model may have "freaked me out". Nice clean job.

Great looking model ; what a color scheme! Surely, there must be some air regulation against that kind of blinding pattern!
