Gordon Sørensen Built up the interior of the fuselage, and added panels to the doors. Reference photos show cross-bracing in the fuselage, just behind the seats. I added this with round styrene.
Need to add the windows (from the inside) and then I can close up the fuselage. The decal sheet includes pre-cut masks for the windows.

Knocked off the drop tanks twice

Gordon Sørensen Found some resin seats for the Hunter - PJ Productions MB Mk.4 Ejection Seat.
Painted with Tamiya Black, Seat cushions with Humbrol 250 Sand, highlighted with a PrismaColour Silver Pencil.
Gordon Sørensen Decals applied. Used numerous stencils and other markings from the spares box, and Royal Canadian Navy markings from AboveBelow Graphics.
This was originally going to be my entry in the 'Tarp' Groupbuild for the Just Making Conversation podcast. We were suppose to have them done and presented at Telford. Last year… Little late to the finish line, but pleased with the result.

Moreno Baruffini Good things needs time 🙂
Don't worry Gordon, it's really a good result!
Gordon Sørensen Was looking at super-hobby.com for some stuff I wanted, and ordered the KV Models Mask for the canopy. No way I was going to try to mask that on my own… Ordered the Kelik Scale Models 3D decal at the same time. Interesting… looks good though. Attached them with Humbrol Clearfix.

Gordon Sørensen The lower wing was not a great fit. Sanded quite a bit, and two or three rounds of the Putty-Sand-Repeat on the wing-fuselage fairings.
Using Humbrol 19 Red for on the wingtips. Painting the red before the Silver on the fuselage.
Gordon Sørensen Lost the exhausts somewhere, replaced with a set from an Airfix Mk.IX in the stash. Highlighted the panellines with an Architect Pen, then a coat of Testors Dullcote.
