Thanks all,
Long time no see Ryan!
Coming along as it feels like I’m building an Airfix 1/72 starter kit

One slight drawback is a chunk of plastic to glue to the underside fuselage, I suppose it’s there for a Sea Gladiator boxing? I hate these as I find them almost impossible to blend in.

Got the lower wings on, thinking about painting, then thought - it’s all the same colour, why not put on the top wing too...

Then I thought, heck, let’s get the undercarriage on too...

Then I thought, heck, why not rig it?

I considering doing the decals but thought this was a bit too much

It’s a pleasure doing wings and rigging before painting - I usually paint it beautifully only to cover it in glue... obviously, there are a limited amount of aircraft this would work for!
I’m having fun anyway.
