Thanks guys, you are all inspiring. Well I finished the Cox apart from a couple of coats of Matt Varnish that need applying. See what you think. The helmet sits on his right knee under that hand that I cut the fingers down on.

Step one - Primer

Day 68

having done a little research I have added a few minor detail changes that are different to the paint scheme that comes with the figure. These are now true and correct. Cox complete and in place.

Oops! well I tried to upload the pics but it wouldn't have it. Ill try again later. Sorry guys, perhaps John needs to look at something.

Cheers

Andy

Thanks guys. Glad you liked it. Meet the rest of the crew, Forest is there Joe lol. I have cleaned these up ready for some filling.

I have changed the set up of the rudder controls as I didn't think that the white metal parts were neither strong enough nor secure enough to the shafts. You can see from the original post pic.

I have now completed all of the wiring and switches ready for setting up. I have however got the lighting switch and radar switch working.

Here you can see the lighting illuminated, the mast lighting isn't very clear, sorry.
