Hi Dave

Sorry to hear about the mishap but all looks well. The PE parts have really paid off it's looking very good.

View attachment 32940 I've managed to save my build.Have superglued the wing back onto the canopy. With the pins for extra strength the join feels ok.I've decided to glue the rear gunners canopy on in the closed position.The model is now masked and ready for a coat of primer tomorrow evening.Just needs a gentle wash to remove greasy finger prints.

I've primed the model and then sprayed the undersides in Revell enamel sky.Then i sprayed the upper surface dark earth colour.After that i masked off the camouflage pattern with white Tack and Tamiya tape then sprayed Dark Green on.The Earth and Green are Xtracolour enamel paints .I like these as they dry gloss giving a good surface to apply the decals to.I have also applied the decals,sealed them in with a coat of Klear and given the model a wash with Florymodels dark dirt.I hope to finish the model tomorrow and will post some photo's.
