Yep - those lights look Superb mate, you could almost imagine they are real units. OC. -
Re- windows, could be some spares incase you goof them like i did on my Wokka. OC.

Thats some great progress Denis, I understand you with hick up - bet it was less than clear destructions - I swear they expect us to be mind readers, keep up the great work should be a stunner when built. OC.

When they brought out these kits I wouldn't imagine for one minute they would imagine them being super detailed to the level you have - you have transformed these kits into a thing of beauty. OC.

I found this thought you might find it interesting I think its the same squadron for your MV22B Marine. OC. https://www.nellis.af.mil/News/Article/2394690/mv-22b-ospreys-fly-over-gulf-coast/

Evening all, More progress with the Wokka - I masked up the front unit then glued it in place, when set I ran some filler into a few tiny gaps then I scraped the edges to get a smooth join, also there was a glearing gap above the canopy - I was able to find a strip and glue it there and fill behind it, after priming and painting it should look ok. So here is the current stage. OC.

Hiya mate, yep I decided to paint the inside first as sometimes you can see they have not been painted when looking through the glass, yep I am going to paint the outside too - with the gap...............yep it was a moulding fault I have made a cover for it when painted over it should vanish in with the paintwork. OC.

Yep, I agree with you with the water - I noticed a big difference aswel - good thing aswel about Micro Sol - you can re visit it even the next day to help the decal settle even more. OC.
-
That Micro Sol and Set are amazing. OC.

Evening all, more progress tonight, I have been working on the cockpit area ready for the glazing unit, a touched up a few areas then I had to do some dry fitting and adjusting to get the galzing to fit the front, then I painted the inside frames of the glazing unit as it will be seen slightly, then a dry fit. I have the maks that will go on next before gluing home the unit. OC.

Looks so complex - enough to test the application of decals - frankly if anyone can do it you can mate. OC.

Over here the USAF have a permanent detachment at Mildenhall airbase, the one above in my photo was one of these. OC.
