She is coming on a treat denis - really nice build. OC. -
That is a great colour reminds me of the 70s scalextric cars colours. OC.

Hi Mark, no it had to be glued down to seal it where it meets the fuselage, it was built as a two piece unit - it fitted quite well but gluing it down was better. OC.

I think you are racing against greg Jack. great work by the way. OC.

Good evening all, I managed to get a bit done this afternoon - I cleaned up the front cowl seams and added just the smallest amount of putty. OC.

Some good work with the details Mark, I remember the same experience with planks bending and fitting - I nearly gave up more than once - but keeping at it is the key. Read through my Greayhound build you will se what I meant. OC.

No progress or pics folks (sorry) I was in the back yard all day getting some vit D off the sun, then after supper I fell asleep in the chair and was too late when I woke up, think the fresh air and sun made me tired. OC.

It is looking super Jack, do you super detail with washes highlighting etc when assembled? I was never that good at that part when I was younger inpatient I think I was. OC.

Glad I'm not building it with all those additions / add - ons I would be building for ages picking out the details with my scraper and knife. OC.

You have surgeons hand when it comes to model building Kevin , bet back in the days of Blue Peter bet you used to make loads of stuff same as I did. OC. -
Evening all home inmates, I did a bit more on the spit this eve as I was in the back yard enjoying some nice but cold sunshine from that strange thing in the sky, so first thing I ran some putty into that gap where the top engine cowl meets the forward fuselage, then it was time to construct the bottom cowl at the front, this also has a pe vent filter fitted inside (fiddly with limited acsess) after cleaning the join seams (slightly) I then glued it in place. No pics as I will wait till I have cleaned up the join seams where it meets the fuselage. OC.

Hiya mate, thank you for the compliment, I'm not sure about the exhausts - guess it is quite unusaul for them to be this detailed with in a kit, in the box there is a choice of two different sets of exhausts I guess for early or late - if not a different model of Spit. OC.
