Some of the red peeled off, easy enough fix. My problem is getting the triangle the same on the other side. Symmetry is not my friend. Thanks guys, it's been decided to just hang the dang thing!

Friskit is a good way to do it if you want to stick something to the model, but the symmetry thing comes into play. The manilla template allows you to spray thru it at low pressure, then flip it over for the other side of the tail, making both alike. Kind of like using a circle template to paint road wheels.
No, I have no been stuck in the mud with the halftrack and gun.
Finally got the engine nacelles installed. hind sight being what it is I should installed these prior to sealing up the mid section, I could haver gotten more pressure to close up the gap between surfaces.
Close up of the only thing that seems to have worked out on this.

Hey Bob , looks like you're making progress 
Careful with that spider on the table

That spider will creep up on us shortly...I'm thinking green for it also.
Well folks, I'm slightly dissapointed in myself. I lost my temper the other day. Something that I just don't do, especially over plastic. Well in this case it was PE I lost it over. The Eduard afterburner I have been struggling with for so long..one of them fell off, just popped right off, hit the floor and bent all out of whack. That's when I ripped the other three off and threw them in the trash.
When I think of all the time...oh well, on to the kit parts!
You may recall that I am in constant practice mode for Natural Metal Finish with AlcladII. This is an exercise in heat distorted metal.
Sweet looking ain't they?? Red, White Blue and clear green, then Alclad clear base. Then...
And another misting of Jet Exhaust
The effect is there when you see it in person but...it's just not there...think the color bands are too thick and maybe not the right colors.
Anywho...they are glued on the Bone.
Dang tail plane wingspan is wider than most WWII aircraft wingspan.
And here we are all shinny and clean, ready for some decals.
Did I mention this thing is BIG!
thanks for looking, let me know what you think. I'm going for the kill tomorrow!

No I've never heard how big it might be as compared to a 1/72 scale Spit...
By the way, it sounds like you might be ready to open up a dental office. Always in practice !

OT (sorry for hijacking bob!)
Dolomiti was great - my most favorite - until they changed the ingredients but i wrote of another ice cream ... the only thing i remember is that it was from Schöller and not Langnese and that it was put out of the market around 1979/1980 ... if only i could remember the name!

Those exhausts will look great after some washes!
