No Tophe, I want to make it as close to your dream as I can.  It's all over sky blue, it is not a military aircraft and has no markings except registration letters.
So I ask again, gloss or satin?

I think I prefer Satin, not Gloss (I used Humbrol Enamel Matt before I turned to Tamiya Acrylic).
Thanks for making it according to my favourite features rather than yours! ;) :thumbsup: I appreciate this as a friendly gift, thanks again!

A new definition of the criterion of exactness  :o ;D :thumbsup:

Crew are painted and cleared.  I say crew, they are actually a young couple.

All that is left is to assemble the props & spinners,  a touch of black wash here and there and to paint the canopy framings.

Wouldn't like to meet Samantha on a dark night ! She looks far tougher than Austin  ;)

Nice work mate  :thumbsup:

Samantha is one of the Airfix Stratos IV TSR2 crew girls with a replacement head.  As she is an Anime Girl she therefore has extraordinarily long legs, a tiny waist and a pneumatic chest.

Isn't she lying on her stomach aboard the Stratos IV?
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! :)

The crew in the Stratos 4 were prone/kneeling astride a bench.  Is that clear?  Like the position one would adopt riding a sports motorbike but with the knees and hips less bent.
Rotating them backwards puts them in the sitting position with their legs apart.

OK, got that.  :thumbsup:

I've got one of the Stratos IV kits, but saw it as another stock TSR2, and didn't look too closely at the 'alternative crew'.  ;D

There are 2 crew in the Stratos 4.  Both in this "doggy style" position.  The other one is piloting my ziking Ragnar.

From the way this discussion has evolved I think Airfix may well have found themselves being referred to The Lord Chancellor's Office back in the day ?  ;)
