Hi Spanjaard, I already have them printed. They have been made by a graphic designer who makes them by order in a high quality laser color printer.

ok, not the kind of printer you expect to have at home, right? 🙁 well, we will need to keep going to print services 🙂

Thank you John. Unfortunately I have to repeat the painting, because the yellow part is rough.

Very nice work on a what looks like a challenging kit mate. Not sure how I missed this so far, and glad it's off the you-know-what shelf 😉

Looks very good so far! Great camo scheme. Your build shows that with a little love old kits are always usable and buildable.

Oh Andy, you're very kind... Is there a Matchbox GB now?
Thanks for your comment 🙂 👍

It seems so, Andy. I hope he can pick up the project before the GB ends. I have several projects stopped for not being able to attend to them now, such as the DH.88 or the U-2. But they will all come to an end, sooner or later.
The last thing I did was strip the paint to repaint due to the harsh orange peel effect the yellow had when I put on the sand colored base coat. It is not appreciated in the pics, but that was not pleasing to the eye.
Simon, thanks for your comment 🙂

Thank you so much, Andy.
It was going to be a quick OOB build at first, but I started adding a few things until it finally made life difficult for me, 😄

A real master class! Thanks for the detail on how to mold a needed part... I intend to try it on at least a couple projects. Striking paint scheme, a real standout!
