Hi Alan, I think the Jag looks great! The paint work really has lifted it and looks very tidy, just the decals now and she's done.

Looking forward to the finished thing and your closing thoughts on the kit.

Cheers

Paul

Cheers Graham, I found it really difficult to keep it tidy trying to do the dry brushing, the panel lines and rivets are really shallow

Looks like a Jag to me. Don't be hard on yourself.

Cheers Ian , I think I'm not happy due to me of enjoying the build and I gave up on really and said that'll do , engine section is the real disappointment and I'll explain in detail what to do when I do the right up for the completed thread

Wow! That looks just how a Jag should look, the wraparound camo is a superb scheme and my favourite, you've done a good job of it.

It looks like you've had a couple of hitches, but you overcame them and done a top job.

I can't wait to see her all decalled up.

Looking very nice. Youtube has some nice clips of Jaguars landing on some quite rough ground, it looks strange seeing it do this, but just shows how good it was.

Cheers guys I appreciate it :smiling3:

This was always one of my favourite aircraft , but I think they got the name wrong , I think it looks more like an eagle from the dorsal she looks like an eagle or a hawk swooping down on prey :smiling3:
