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.

Excellent. This is a perfect rendition of my earliest memories of the Victor

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.
