No longer sole project on the go.

Beautiful work Lou.

The Mosquito just has the perfect lines.

Cheers

Indeed it does have excellent lines. It looks made to fly as she demonstrated time and again.

Lou

[Gearup]

Hard to argue the looks of a mosquito...

Primer applied to the two subassemblies.

Lou

[Boomerang]

Looking forward to the finished model.

Gordon

[Gearup]

I see that you have included the longitudinal external stiffener mod on the rh side. I had totally forgot about that on my mosquito model. Excellent detail.

Fraser

[lastvautour]

Thank you Fraser. Having done that, applying decals in that area just got considerably harder.

Lou

[lastvautour]

All glued and ready for final sanding.

Lou

[lastvautour]

Only the lettering need be printed on my PC. I have an Arrow Graphics decal sheet that will be used for roundels and walkway areas.

Lou

[Gearup]

looking very sleek, Lou.

Ran out of my usual grey primer and had to move to a slightly lighter grey shade. Next a quick look for flaws and then paint. Dark green, medium sea grey and black bottom. Guns and antennae will be added last.

Lou

[lastvautour]

Dark Green and Med Sea Grey applied. Exhaust are attached and guns and nose antenna have been produced. Decals are printed and await paint for the Q RA fuselage code letters.
