Not much of an update, but after 3 weeks i finally have the painting done so thougt i better post somthing. After getting the white sorted, i got onto the top side. This took a lot of masking, it took 3 evenings to mask up the grey before adding the green. I then had to do some touching up but now i can finaly get the decals on.

I've spent the last few nights adding decals to the Typhoon, so now thats done i can get onto this.

That looks great!

Looking very nice, Martin. Big models do take some time.

Thanks. It is indeed taking some time but no point rushing it.
