| Thanks Terry....I will keep an eye out for all of those.....I guess I should finish the unbuilt models that I do have. Anyway, I have proceeded to near finish with the Tracker, although I have not yet glued the cockpit canopies in place yet. This is because I have built a small interior light to highlight the interior that I built, and still may need to get into the inside of the model to mount the light properly. Some of the following shots I did with reduced or no external illunination, to demonstrate the effect of the internal light assembly. The light makes it possible to see more of the interior, though I could not pick it up well with the camera. The build quality is better than the A-4, but its still not where I would like to be. I learnt a heck of a lot, and my confidence is building. I still like the little Tracker that Ive built, and look forward to showing my new born son or daughter when he/she arrives next year (well, maybe not straight away, if I want to keep my collection intact)... Anyway, here are two groups of the progress shots as I near completion.....

| Thanks very much guys, much appreciated....regarding the tail emblem, my research showed that the Tiger emblem was not used whilst the tracker was embrked. So I decided to go with the older torch tail emblem instead, though I think the tiger is way more cool. Have not done any modelling for about two months now....had a bit of a disaster with the Wessex I was doing....sprayed what I thought was clear lacquer, but turned out to be primer instead.....by the time I relaized what I had done, it was too late.....I have to re-do the thing, but just havent had time for a couple of months now......work commitments getting in the way

| No worries mate. I wasn't sure if it was at home or visiting somewhere in North America.
