Nearly done.

Wings and tanks yet to be attached.
Bit of quality control to do and then start painting.

I'll paint it up as one of the 'C' s in the Congo

Started to finish it off.

I had a bit of a battle with the shade of green/Brown eventually went with what I had to hand.

I've had a go at the the lightly sprayed lighter colour in the camouflage with a very dry brush . Seems to work.

More quality control required.

Very nice Gordon, not a colour scheme I've seen before, regards Paul J.

[lastvautour]

Coming around Gordon. The cam jod turned out well.

Interesting model. I understand it was quite a successful aircraft at the time. Well done.

It was an interesting aeroplane.

  Painting complete .Decals have been applied. I've left off the optical sight for the camera's and the centre piece on the inlet.
From what I can find the "C"s were the only ones to have it.

That leaves the jet pipe and shroud and some touching up.

Picture to come when all done.

Cheers

Excellent job Gordon, it's surprising what aircraft types have flown under the UN flag, regards Paul J.

[lastvautour]

The markings turned out great Gordon. We now have 64 models for our 2020 Poster.

Thank You Paul and Lou.

The colour scheme presented a challenge with the three colours . It was good fun and learned a bit.

I've always liked the Tunnan. Has a certain look about it.

Very nice and again I like the unusual camo.  I guess that's what makes solid models fun to make...there is a model of any aircraft type you want hidden in a tree somewhere!

Fraser

[Boomerang]

Thank You Fraser.
