I'm spoilt for choice with day ticket waters near me, there are some cracking lakes to fish. I can also go as a guest on my son in laws fathers club lake four time a year
I'd like to say that photo was taken in this country but it was in France where the fishing is easier, it was about 38lb

Thanks Ian glad you like it
The letters on the fuselage I had to put the yellow on first let them dry for a while then put the black on top of them. Never done that before

Will do Guy. Once the wash is cleaned I can fit the rockets before the mat coat goes on

I've got some white marks in my dark grey paint on the top of the wings. Not sure what happened there, I'll see if they disappear when the mat varnish goes on, I'm not confident they will It's ok as this one will not be setting foot outside the house, it shall be living in my cabinet, somewhere near the bottom

I like what I see . Can't see the white marks though. I'd matt it like you said, and if they they are still visible, I'd then go over them with base colour again. I'd also thin the paint and go at them without the AB nozzle cover on, that gives you a very controlled small spray area. Have a practice at first though, it takes a while to get used to thinning, spray pressure and minimal opening of the flow.
