Thanks for the comments folks. I haven't done much on this, I've been busy on the 1:1, changed the gearbox and overdrive oil, topped up the diff, found the source of a small but annoying water leak, took the sump off to change the gasket.
I did manage to get the first three parts - support frame for the pilot's seat - assembled:
I've done a bit more since taking that photo, the seat and control column are attached and it's had a coat of paint. Just about everything internal is in RLM02 according to
Airfix, and that can't really be argued with, so the sprues have been cleaned up a bit and had a coat of Vallejo 71044.
Here's the undercarriage - this is going to be fragile!
Should get some more done tomorrow.
