This is a blast from the past Ian, not seen one of these kits in years.

Should look awesome when done.

These are magnificent birds with colours that shimmer in the bright sunlight. I frequently see them near the house as there is a river and stream close by. The common ones are a strong cobalt blue with red beaks and either yellow or white breasted. The ones here have more pronounced beaks.

Looking forward to see the colours on, Ian.

Cheers,
Richard
