I like that bird; only last year finished one of these Airfix Kits myself.
Old kit, but nevertheless makes a nice Vark!
Are you going to paint the canopy frames too?

I built the plane a few months ago and it is in a display cabinet in my classroom (I am a high school teacher). However, because of Covid, I am working from home. I always do paint the canopies but by hand without masking, so they can be a bit dodgy. The plane fascinated me and although it had such a lot of bad publicity, it is a really cool concept. I will try to find more pics.
Most of my kits are from the 70's and 80's, so not that special.

You can carefully scrape off any accidents when hand painting canopies with a sharpened toothpick. Make sure you let the paint thoroughly dry first.

Great advice! will have to go through them and do that. Thanks.

I see that the number 10 pic in the album did show the canopy, and it's not too bad.
