Thanks Stu , the intake lip is Alclad Chrome . All in all the decals were very good , I couldn't fault them at all . Just a lot of very careful masking . It was a model that wasn't going to be finished in a hurry . :lol: :lol:

I'm sort of glad now that I picked the all white with the Blue stripe. I reckon it would have been a bitch to paint the real one.

This is just bloody beautiful.
I truly am in awe of your work Knotty.
Weather it is your natural metal paint work, your big props, those magnificent LAT/VLAT fire bombers you build, or your modern big jets......you just knock em out of the ball park every time!!
