Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Fuselage halves glued together today.  Some PSR will be needed.  More due to my clumsiness than Trumpeters model.
I also scratched up a wing mounted radar pod from a Mosquito slipper tank and a B57 drop tank.  This will be needed for the Firestreaks.

The Wyvern is now in one large lump, primed and set for PSR.

And a surprisingly large lump. I was certainly taken aback a bit when I built mine.

Looks good in primer, as do most models for some reason  :unsure:

Yes.  When I built the first one I deliberately used an undersized pilot to make it look even larger.

PSR.  Fit isn't terrible on these (apart from one of the wing root inlets - both need fettling but one is miss-shaped and needs building up slightly) but it could be better.
Also plugging all the hardware mounting holes in the wing undersurfaces that I am not going to use.
...and as I typed that I've realised I plugged the drop tank holes which I am going to need - bugger.

PSR complete and painting has begun.
Since it is to be an RAF aircraft I am doing it in the 41-45 fighter scheme of green and grey over grey with a sky fuselage band and letters (assuming I can find some in my decal folder).  I'm using Vallejo paints from their WW2 RAF set and while I am using their recommended shades i'm pretty sure the underside grey is darker than reality.
Not that it really matters as its a whiff.

Two coats of green and one coat of grey.

At least one more coat of each will be required.
