Looks really good Kev. I like the idea of using matt paint to 'key' the gloss in.

I bought this kit as the Airfix one has various problems but it could be a case of 'Out of the frying pan and into the fire',lol!!! That aside even though it's a kit that can't be rushed I'm enjoying working on it. After priming parts have been painted as required. The engine has been drilled to take the propeller boss, the shaft of which had to be thinned. A resin block has been mounted in the nose onto which the engine will be mounted.

I've put some in the nose and forward fuselage Kev. A roll test over a pencil seemed to show there's enough but I'll know better once I put the main wheels on.
Once again the Tamiya gloss white didn't want to adhere to the primer so it was oversprayed with Halfords.

Did you manage to enough ballast in the nose?
Nice work on those wings folds.
