Again the pics are self-explanatory. The rubbing down took the best part of 90mins, but would probably have taken longer if I'd been listening to anything other than Led Zeppelin ! - So here's the wee thing ready for its' first (only ?) shot of undercoat.









Ohhhh yes, and for those of you who have asked about colours..... Think North African, Mid-East or Gulf states, multiple brown and/or tan tones and very possibly no loadout  :o

Maskol scares me.  It always clumps up on me and I miss a bit :(

Nice dropped flaps btw :)

Leave the canopy tinted as the purple gives it a nice contrast!

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!!!!  
King Arthur: Can we come up and have a look?
French Soldier: Of course not. You're English types.
King Arthur: What are you then?
French Soldier: I'm French. Why do you think I have this outrageous accent, you silly king?

Well regardless I would rather take my chance out there on the ocean, that to stay here and die on this poo-hole island spending the rest of my life talking to a gosh darn VOLLEYBALL.

Looks good.  Don't forget to extract all the sanding dust in the panel lines/rivets with an old toothbrush prior to laying your primer on.

I know: "nag, nag, nag..."   :P

And the Mirage will be dEEcalled today, btw...   ;)
