Looking VERY good! 

[Old Wombat]

Nice!

[DogfighterZen]

Another beauty on the way!

Definitely not going to finish: underside paint is drying upstairs and there's two more spray colours plus handbrushing and decals to go on yet.

The P.7D used the bottom half of an F-4 centreline tank as it's ventral bulge. I didn't have another one, but as I was looking at options, I found the top half of the tank, complete with it's molded-in pylon, and it occurred to me to turn the latter into a fairing for a gun.

Very nice ! Love the look and that's something I'd love to try my own take on.

[Dizzyfugu]

Excellent. And I sense Overburgers...!

Yeuk, that looks TERRIBLE while it's being masked off.

I'm sure it'll look the business when it's done, but right now.......
