Reposted due to forum loss:

Still have the pin wash and a bit of grease to add here and there, but the decals are all applied and the assembly is done.

I picked up four mirrored wall tiles from Bunnings this morning so the final piece for my Tomcat entry for Expo is now complete.
It's no prize winner, but I'm happy with it.

Apart from the fact that this is a model of one of the most magnificent aeroplanes ever made, this is a stunning model. You win on two counts.

First time entering Model expo this year, and I nearly didn't due to being crook the week before. I'm glad I did though.

I want to thank everyone here who offered advice, images and feedback on this build. A second place in Medium jets Modified, was way more than I expected, especially with the great competition I was up against.

I'm going to get the photo studio set up this week and take some beauty shots, so I haven't quite finished boring you all with pictures just yet, so be patient with me.
