Guy, Boots, Thanks! So, gave it a gloss coat, and then the decals, lots of tiny things to add, it is almost like one of those seperate decal sets... But the are all on.. followed by a wash on the struts and on the rest of the plane.. So now to let that dry, then attach the landing gear, prop, and I think this wash is enough weathering for this little thing...

Bert I was told the Mk.IX didn't have a wire as it had changed over to an FM radio

Lovely work Bert !! Great work, and for such a small kit that has some very nice interior detailing. You did a great work, and I think the Silver version looks the best too.

Bert I was told the Mk.IX didn't have a wire as it had changed over to an FM radio Aargh... just after getting it fitted.. and I like the way it looks so.. I guess mine doesn't have an FM radio but good old AM for listening to the music Final pictures, added the navigation lights as well.. And thanks Robbo, for your 1/24 version, was very handy for checking on some details during the build and painting!
