right guys here we go but first i should explain a little about what i'm planning for this kit.

i started a thread about this kit just before christmas as i thought the instruction sheet in the box was wrong about the colour scheme for the A/C.
after a discussion between several members it was generaly accepted that there should an RLM74/75/76 cammo pattern but without the yellow cowl ring, which should be RLM76 instead, and also no yellow wing tips as stated on the box !

so based on the above

i've painted the undercart doors RLM76 on the oustside also painted the lower surface of the horisontal stabs the same colour

the cowl ring is done, also in RLM76 and was assembled with the painted prop and cooling fan and black spinner with white spiral

wheelbays painted in dark grey

Looking good mate! Seems like you had more luck with the spinner spiral than I did on my Hobby Boss one!
