RCN(?) Supermarine Attacker

RCN is not carved in stone, might depend on how well the decal printing goes.

Novo/Frog, plastic is rather translucent



Scratch up an extremely basic cockpit, Everyone knows that the canopy in this kit is dreadful, but at least Novo managed to turn out a rather clear one this time, so some interior is required.



Made a bit of a control panel to 'busy' the visible areas. Thank the modeling gods for spare drop tanks.




Primer on, let's hope I managed to get all the oil off of the plastic. Most panel lines have been rescribed.

That looks like a perfect coat of primer. If it's Stynylrez, you know it'll try its best to stick to the plastic. I would minimize the masking on the fuselage, just in case.

Congratulations to you Seņor Rat on taking this to the next level with the scratch built details.  Hoping the decals come out okay and you get the results you planned for.  :smiley:
