Looks great. What paint did you use for the green?

It’s Dark Slate Gray, not green. And it’s TMM enamel.

That's a superb looking Wimpy.  The paint finish is excellent and I particularly like how you've 'faded' the fabric over the geodesic structure on the wings.  It really gives the look of an aircraft exposed to the elements while operating over the North Atlantic.  On the strength of this I think my kit has just gone up a couple of notches in the stash.  I really hope this model is a success for Airfix, they really deserve it.

They’ve really picked up their game, after the missteps with the P-40B and Victor. Going back to Indian plastic was a saving grace. And some of their financial woes have been slightly eased.

All right, I've scratched the brain cell & stirred up nothing, I'll maybe blame night shifts, but I'm hanged if I know what TMM is/are? 

They look darn good though, thats a nice Wimpey indeed. :)
