Well it's nearly done!Did'nt need any filler at all on the build,the parts went together with no problem although one area I had problem with was the vertical stabs.The are no locating pins so I had to 'glue & hold' until the joint was semi set.
For the exhaust I mixed various paints,silver gunmetal & bronze, & brush painted & then buffed.I've gave the airframe a coat of thinned down matt black (again,the paint is Revell enamel which seems very thick compared to Humbrol enamel) & once thats dry,I'll take some black pastel & 'polish' the airframe.
Photo's to follow.

Not yet mate,
Orbit's been ill with his back paw & constipated due to the diretic water tabs dehysrating him too much.He had some small poos last night but they were as hard as stone,so I've left him off the diretics for a day or two to rehysrate him.
Merv

But this is it so far.
