Sorry to hear about the paintwork Bruce, hope it turns out OK next time.
Great work so far guys, it looks like quite a few will be finished before the deadline. I've got some more done this morning. The engine is painted and nearly ready to go in. The rear suspension/exhausts have also been fitted.
The body has been given a few coats of Tamiya Racing Blue. It doesn't look too bright indoors but out in the sunlight it looks a lot better.
I'm off to my local model club meeting for a couple of hours, more later.
