  Small set back with the propellers . Did the red/white /blue tips thought that was pretty good .

  Got the Port propeller together and again thought that was pretty good . But alas on closer inspection of the drawings I have
 
  in fact reversed the order so remedial action is currently taking place to reverse this.

  Some progress finally on X-28.

  Engine pylon and pod have been done . Just needs some fine tuning.
  Propeller from a bamboo chopstick .

  The " Airfix"1/72 Australian Vietnam "digger" will be modified to fill the cockpit.

Finally getting some colour onto it.

The Humbrol can is to lend some scale to the model. It is small.

Have to redo the decals . The originals I did look a bit small . Working on it.
