Erik HoughtonGorgeous and well done as usual, Mike. Has me wanting to pick up a certain elderly Airfix airliner kit I spotted at my LHS the other day.....

Mike GrantThanks guys 👍 Airliners don't seem to be as appealing subjects as their death-dealing military counterparts, but they do make colourful models (with no cockpits to detail).

Dirk HeyerGreat result, Mike!
I like it a lot! Above all, it is an old Airfix kit which you have upgraded.
I am currently reading the December Issue of Airfix Model World. Stunning result!
Wish you a happy new year and of course many beautyful hours of modelling!
P.S.: How do you apply your home made filler, made from off-cuts of styrene and liquid cement?

Mike GrantThanks for the nice comments, and happy new year to all.
@Dirk I apply the putty with a cocktail stick or a small spatula, Dirk. Needs a good 24 hours to fully cure but then it should be solid like styrene.

Dirk HeyerThx for your fast reply and the additional hint for necessary drying time.
I`l try it next time.

Christian BruerVery nice finish Mike. I really like airliners in 144 and plan to build the one or other but did not finsih one yet. Which colors and varnish do you use?
