I plan to finish it in SEAC camo

As I may have mentioned elsewhere in this GB, I do like the SEAC schemes... I built my resurrected Monogram P-47 in such a scheme - IIRC I used the roundels from an ancient Frog Spitfire XIV which worked pretty well, plus codes and serials from other old Frog decals from the spares box.

I just this TBolt is build for a short pilot..... (I glued the head rest below the coaming!!!!  DOH!!!!!)

 

This GB has been too much fun!!!!

This is my third kit in a GB (which is a personal record...), but more importantly (almost) completed.

I've laser printed the serial number FL749 on clear decal.

Those masks look very crisp and the bottom photo just over accentuates the large raised panel lines of this otherwise lovely kit. Nice work. 
Cheers.. Dave

This was a lot of fun!!! Thoroughly enjoyed this GB!! Three contributions to one GB, with time to spare. I've never built so fast!!
