Well the good lady Rose surprised me this week. Firstly she got this little lot from Paul at Waterlooville Model Centre. And from the Works this . Not many pics and a lot of facts etc. I have a Wimpey in the stash. Simon

It`s one of those that goes against the grain so to speak. Having to lay down the darkest colours first for easier masking. Although some of the masking is going to be fun.... especially the leading edges... Simon.

It will probably the end of the week before I get chance to, busy up to then. Thanks @giemme, and @bbudde, getting there. Right, a quick chance today at the bench. Sprayed then masked up the tail feathers. And yes Giemme, an interesting paint job, as many shades of grey as your build, 4 so far. Here is the camo. Well that was it for today. All comments welcome. Simon.

Well, with a bit of time on my hands, I got this lot sorted. Templates for the dark grey blobs. Next up, the area which I will have to probably reduce. And finally, I masked up the missiles for the above dark grey. That`s about it for tonight. All comments welcome. Simon.

Did they fit chintz curtains to the earlier models. Simon.

They are not too bad Giemme, blobs more like. Well we cannot upset the Mods can we LOL. And Hi back good sir. Simon.

I had a look at the A/M stuff around for her. Seeing the Peter @airscale cockpit stuff I will go for that. And the Ammo boxes/feeds too, I think Eduard do them. Simon.

That looks lovely sir. I too have this in my stash, and I will follow this thread. Simon.

Forthed Giemme, great work on the pit. And very neat soldering on the exhaust sir. Simon.

Thanks @giemme, @bbudde,, @The Spadgent, things progressing, well were... @VT Red Sox Fan, the rear of the missiles are Dark Grey according to the destructions. Base ball fan I take it? I follow The Pats in NFL. Right I have got my mum visiting for a week, so not much time to spend on the bench. But got this done. Exhaust pipes? A pity nowt will been seen once fitted. As for the front end, I see a lot of Anglo Saxon expletives coming on. Yep , possibly the Dremel clone and grinding wheels to remove a lot of plastic inside. For now I will find something else to do. I know draw out some templates for the camo. All comments welcome. Simon.

Looks like you and Lady H. had a great time there Ced. The Lightening looks magic mate. And yet another tool!!! Still, it`s nice to have one to hand, Oh yeah, welcome back from hols dear chap. Simon.

Good old Alcad 2, sticks like **** to a blanket. Great stuff. Simon.

Thanks @Nikolay Polyakov, she is getting there. Time is on my side by the looks of it. Out with the XF 20 Light Grey. Right, I managed to get some batteries quickly, and was able to take a few more pics. Canopy outer done. Intakes done. And on the fuselage too. And the missiles as well. Well, that`s about it for today. I might be able to squeeze in some bench time tomorrow. All comments welcome. Simon.

Right, thank you @VT Red Sox Fan, @Nikolay Polyakov, @The Spadgent, and @giemme for the kind words. I have my Mum arriving today, so between making things ready I managed to lay some Very Dark Grey down on these few parts. Cockpit coaming and Exhaust areas. Rear decking and engine part. And finally canopy gear and the rear doors to the "Bump stick" I also did the inside of the canopy but the batteries died in the camera. Any how, lets see what I can do over the next week. All comments welcome. Simon.

Great work Tony. Like @giemme said , we want primer, paint etc. But those little snagging jobs need doing. Simon.
