started the BAC tsr-2 today, plane will be white with hardly any weathering so nice and clean as this plane never really got used much in real life, however i do need to use the weathering technique to realise the panel gaps.

Heres what a piece looks like before i weather in the panel details



Finished and sprayed up



Some other bits iv done

PS. dont flame me this is still only the 4th model iv ever done so learning!

quite a big update this evening, got a lot of the exterior assembled, and glossed, the quality of this airfix kit is fantastic







Painted bolt hole details on some panels













Wheels, quite pleased with how these came out actually

Hi Steve

Really nice! I'm intrigued to see the panel-line highlighting done on the sprues (I've never seen that done before) - and the result is great!

All the best

Cheers Rowan

Landing gear done, i like this setup, nice and unique

Last update for today.

Cockpit canopies painted up, windows are a clear colour i made up, the real windows are this colour and gold coated to reflect the flash to protect the pilots when they dropped a nuclear bomb from the plane.



Landing gear bay doors on

Looking very good Steve. I like the detail you have achieved in the undercarriage bays. Youre treatment of the panel lines is very interesting. Keep up the excellent work.
All the best.

I am also quite surprised to see that you paint the individual parts before assembly.

Do you not damage the finish while constructing?

And how do you deal with the seams?

It's amazing!!
