Main build and main camo complete. MRP paints. Decals next.

This little project is now wrapped up. The kit is not perfect, but decent for a 25-year old kit. OOB except the addition of Eduard seatbelts. MRP lacquer paints. Thanks for looking.

Very cool....is the paint scheme based on archive photos?

Jim J Autor
@Lochsa_River - Thanks for the comments. I was only able to find one photo of the plane (I added it to the album at the end). While the paint instructions show a relatively straight line/fade from the sea blue to the intermediate blue, the photo clearly shows a more jagged demarcation, so I tried to capture it. Thanks.

Neuling
Top work again. 👍

Martin Oostrom
Very nice paintwork. It took me a couple of passes through, to notice it is a 3 tone paintjob.

Sebastian Meyner
Absolutely stunning finish Jim!!! 👍
