Welcome from me too Gavin

Avro 748 (Series 2). This is the 1/200 Classic Airlines multi-media kit built OOB. It's not the most colourful of schemes, but the 'PROP-JET' pronouncement is just so early 60s! The build thread is here . Cheers

Thanks @Wings unlevel and @Corsairfoxfouruncle. Luckily everything's turned out OK. It's been a very pleasant build Thanks to everyone who's followed along and especially to @Mjwomack for starting the Darts tournament! Cheers

That sounds good to me Gavin

Welcome to the Group Build Alexey. It's nice to have you along - well, most of you anyway . I hope your finger recovers soon. Cheers

Thank you I'm pleased to report that the main painting is now finished. White went on first. I then I had the challenge of working out where the cheatline demarcation should go. The decals are not very opaque and so have to be applied over white. The positioning of the demarcation line is therefore critical (there's no hiding it beneath the cheatline decal in this case!). To help, I photocopied the decals and taped them in place. The white goes to the bottom of the windows. From there, I was able to position the masking. And here we are finished. Time will tell whether I've got it right or not... Cheers

Yes, that would be fine (and nice to see). In fact, qualification is based on when the first example was built (rather than when it entered service), so the Wasp HAS.1 is clear qualifier. Cheers

We don't see that many P-35s being built Steve, so a particularly nice choice!

Nice work Col, on the panel lines. Re-scribing is one of my pet hates. Probably because I'm so rubbish at it!

An interesting choice Col. I look forward to seeing more!

Thanks Ray 👍 Everything's primed now. and main gear doors added... The remaining miscellaneous parts have been primed too - apart from the u/c legs which I've simply left in their natural metal. I just needed to pop on the o-ring tyres. Instant modelling! Cheers

It's looking beautiful Steve. Nice work 👍

You can really sense how massive this ship was Dennis. Looking good!

How is the fit John? In the photo, it looks like there's a bit of an over-hang at the front? Cheers
