Will get the wash done tomorrow along with the flat coat and maybe a few other wee bits.

Nearly there!

Stunning work as always Dave, have no idea how you can turn them out so fast and of such quality...well done

Thanks Mark. They're not up to the standard of some on here, but they look fine on my shelf :lol:

Good bit done today. Firstly the wash went on:

I then added the pylons, SNIPER and undercarriage before giving the jet a coat of matt varnish:

Nearly there. Added the ordnance, engines and FOD/probe covers today:

Just need to add the weathering (these jets were seemingly fairly abused!), some RBF tags and attach the canopy. Should be done by Thursday at the latest.

Wow, that's looking great Dave!

I'd be over the moon with a finish like this on my one and only build, let alone if it was my 3rd!! :o

Thanks Danny. Really don't know how i've managed them. A couple of weeks off work has helped no doubt! But the Revell kit is so easy to put together you could get most of the building done in a day!
