I've been resisting this kit... such a nice kit!

Ahem! I must redo this subject as the Classic Airframes kit gave me some troubles:

Coming along nicely Ian!

Must say, I am strangely attracted to this kit as well. Have so far been able to resist it but that may change after this build!

(enamel) Paint has occurred !! - Temperate Sea Scheme in 'B Pattern'.

You can see in the last photo that I've already post-shaded the underside. I'll leave the topside camo to dry/cure for 48hrs or so before post-shading that too. I lightened the Xtracolour 'EDSG' as the contrast straight from the tin was just 'too much'. Thanks for looking, comments encouraged.

Ian.

Thank you all very much. Today I polished-it-back with a 4000grit Micro Mesh cloth then brushed on a coat of Klear/Future, so just now it looks and feels like glass. Tomorrow I'll do a pin-wash and leave it for another 24hrs.

Gary that's very kind of you to say but way back in my modelling history I did this wee F-20 as a 'What If' aggressor - still love this pint-job !!
