Hoodlum90 My idea is to use aluminium foil on the Intake and the strip at the exhaust.
The other parts will be polished and painted with modelmaster metalizer.
Right now im still waiting on the polishing paste in the mail. Weathering and pinwashing will be done after sealing the metalizer and applying decals. I plan on using faber castell ink pens in different grey shades.

I had the idea that this single seated Monster should look somewhat impressing in Kobayashis KI.61 Camo either.... Let us see what it will become in the end..

Michael Hickey Earlier today I found out that this is an "Evaluation Desert Camouflage Scheme", all of Saudi Arabia's Lightning's were delivered in the standard "Natural Metal Finish". I don't think the people in charge of making the decision to paint their Lightning's liked it, because I cannot find a single photo of a Lightning in this scheme. The only pictures of something similar to this camouflage scheme is on their Tornado's.

Christian Bruer Me too
One of my New Year's resolutions – find and take more time for modelmaking.
I still have some other Airfix stuff in progress, but I plan to build more of these nice little kits.
Cheers, Christian

Glenn . Double the pressure now I'm watching!
It's funny how both Trumpeter and Airfix kinda stuffed up the afterburners! on these kits.

Russ Haines Splashed out on the resin after market "exhausts", so now any stuffing up is entirely my own fault
