Thanks gentlemen, there might be light at the end of the tunnel. Tony, rescue on the paint job, a little secret - it's not painted (well ok the white is) but not the silver !

Tunnel, thinking about it Tony, this aircraft has its own tunnel - an access tunnel / tube for the crew to transit the bomb bay and enter the crew rest area,

Just a bit more, 'blump' is sitting in the garden ready for what few decals it has. What a strange build. Today 'blump' sat on the garage floor, while I moved around working on it. Normally, the model does all the moving, not me !

Yes, it certainly a model that induces a bit of exercise. But, it's finished.............yeah...............pics are in the completed aircraft section.
