Well the problem with the MkII is that she's not had any texturing done to her engines.... a somewhat lower priority as there was only 200 of them, and the limited 2d skills at my disposal need to be managed to get the most out of them...

You have to take the image in the context of what it is... Work in Progress.

So here you can see what an untextured part of a model looks like.... grey
she's sat at Scampton (she has to sit somewhere) and I've turned on the navigation and formation lights because it looks cool...

Hope this shows up enough.

The are of the cockpit framing where the red line is drawn should be black.

This frame was actually on the inside of the canopy with the vertical frames on the outside. Therefors it was painted the interior frame colour of black.

Pic 2 of the BBMF Lanc shows it well.
