Making progress, albeit slowly.
Finished the control yoke
Added some occupants for the cockpit
Finished the top coat of Hu19 and added the Silver (Hu11) patches for the national insignia.
Added the canopy and the radar dome (borrowed from the Academy kit). Still need to do some tidy up work on the canopy join.
And a shot of the waist position
Next step will be the engine exhaust and the propellers. |

Wow.....What an attractive colour scheme! The added details around the outriggers make a visible improvement to the venerable Airfix Catalina too. 
All the best |
