I used a mix of tamiya xf8 Matt blue and x4 gloss blue I was a case of mixing the two until I got it as close as I could so I can't tell you what quantity.

Well done on a game changer aircraft. PaulE

Started on the most complicated part of the build the engine and I have decided to add more detail by adding the ignition leads.

 

[peterairfix]

More work on the engine I have all wired up and all the exhaust pipes in place.

 

[minitnkr]

Well that certainly came out great. PaulE

Another update more parts added and finally attached to the rest of the build and I think there is more parts to the engine the the rest of the kit.

Outstanding. PaulE
