Thanks Garet, I'll keep my eye open for some non knotty pine. I know Sugar Pine is good for carving but it's  as pricey as Bass wood up here. Have a Merry Christmas!

Some progress.

Looking good Lou! Is that the infamous Frog tape your using?

Peter

The tape is just old cheap green masking tape.

That's it, Lou. You've got it. But I notice that you've painted the black deicer boots first. Are you planning to paint the rest of the aircraft a lighter colour later and what colour will it be?

The United Nation's aircraft have always been white for quite a long time. I don't recall seeing them in any other scheme.

My tribute to CC-115461 is complete.

[Peter]

That would be an impressive model at any scale but even more so at this one.

And what a cracking little model it has turned out to be as well Lou,I really like the delicate blue against the white of this colourscheme.
