C'est finis! I had to put the wheels up as I could not get the u/c legs to fit and cutting the underwing regs to fit the doors is/was a pain! So wheels up!

The blue coat had a completely rough finish. I tried to polish with green cleaning scouring pads, then #000 steel wool, then 1200 wet sandpaper, nothing seemed t work, so I just put the decals on it.

The Montex canopy mask designed for the Revell kit worked well.

I ended up making Hunter GA.11 XE680, BY 789 using the Cutting Edge decals that a friend sent me.

Okay, first dilemna! Photos show Hunter GA.11 XF297 and Almark has XF287 on the decal sheet! So I will fix the decals to reflect XF297.
