Looks like you totally nailed the paint to me! Feathered edges can be a pain

Feathered edge with a brush! There we go my man, there we go! I love how you’re always achieving your goals.

Heavy metal would throw my concentration off while modeling.

lol - you guys crack me up!
Generally I don't listen to music whilst modelling, I tend to listen to something more relaxing - mainly to distract from my Tinnitus at present.
Thanks for all the comments - I'm pretty pleased with how the paint came out. I've since got all the decals on - all 18 of them. The sheet Airfix gave with this kit was pretty plain. They were however nice to use. It looks a bit toy like at present but I'm hoping adding the pylons etc. will help.
Now time for a matt coat and some weathering.
Cheers!

Looks great Stuart! Some weathering and the flat coat will help it look less toy like.
