- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

...I pooped out to get some bits and pieces...

:lol:

I don't know what you mean  :rolleyes:, just checked the spelling and it seems OK to me  :rolleyes:.

Anyway, took the model to Telford and back.  This morning said hello to my ancient cube of Revell-based acrylic satin stuff (varnish I guess, made from Revell acryic matt varnish mixed with Klear), gave it a good stir, diluted it a bit more and applied it to the Comet.  A much better finish.  Not my best whif but as far as I'm concerned it is completed.

And VERY good it looks too!  :thumbsup: :bow:

The five Comet Whiffs on the SIG stand made a terrific mini-scene in their own right, and K5084 stood out amongst them.
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Flattery will get you everywhere, Kit, but which K5084?

I meant the newest one, from the PRU.

I like what you've done with this. Looks great!
It takes only one drink to get me drunk. The trouble is, I can't remember if it's the thirteenth or the fourteenth.

Looks good here, even better on the stand  :bow:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

That looks excellent - a great result from a primitive kit. :thumbsup:
