Just a quick update without photos, got the PPSR done (Prime, Putty, Sand, Repeat - needed to prime to judge the surface imperfections).
Outer wings, tip tanks and tail are all now secured.
Currently working on the undercarriage legs as the Victor ones are Quad bogeys and the HP111 are Sextuple bogeys, and need to adjust the nose leg to be set at the correct height to get the correct sit for the airframe. Once thats sorted i can focus on the detail parts and be ready to start spraying.

Cheers

Making those bogies won't even be half the fight - just wait till he has to paint them all!

That's simply stunning, Mr Baker! This has got to be one of my favorite entries for this GB! I'm really impressed at how you built up the fuselage. Don't be surprised if you take home an armload of awards for this beauty!!!
