Many thanks Marco, Boots and, Steve. Only a quick update. I've painted the wheels, and glued them on the undercarriage legs. I think they need a little weathering.

Cheers muckers, Pete,Guy, Paul, Boots and Ian. Much appreciated. I've assembled the propellers, and painted them. Not to sure if I'm happy with the finish. I sprayed them in poor light, and I'm thinking it shows. On a plus note, I've attached the cannon, and machine guns in the nose section. I'd previously held the nose cone in place with PVA glue so I could line the camouflage up, without the need to mask the gun barrels. The four machines guns come in one piece without the cooling hole details. The detail for these are supplied as decals. I didn't think this would be very successful, but they went on just fine and look ok to me. One of the counterbalance weights can just be seen now the nose cone is removed.

Looks brilliant Joe, I would never have guessed those barrels had decals on for the cooling jackets. they look like brass replacements, top skills getting them on the barrels so well

She is really looking the part now Joe . As for the props, well I can't see any flaws from here fella. Don't be so harsh on yourself, that's my job . As for the gunnery bits, well I could have sworn they were brass replacements, hats off to you once again sir

Gorgeous build, Joe, and I love the barrel detail on the diplomacy-delivery devices.

Pete, Paul, Ian, Guy, Duke, Marco, Boots and, Mence. Thanks chaps. Very much appreciated. I've finished the cockpit detail. The radios are in place, so is the seat and armour. As you can see, I used the kit decal for the seat harness. I sometimes use lead tape, but couldn't find it after my recent tidy up! and didn't have a suitable after market one. So the decal one it is. The canopy will be closed, so fingers crossed, it will be ok.
