Paint scheme complete. I primed the kit with Mr Surfacer 1200, Then sprayed the underside and the sides with Humbrol Aircraft Blue #65, masked and then sprayed Humbrol Satin White #130, and finally masked again and sprayed Humbrol Light Earth #119. I will respray the wheel wells next and then apply a Klear coat ready for the decals.

Decals applied. This first decal to be applied was the left hand fuselage Balkenkreuz, which on contact bonded to the surface like a limpet and refused to moved. It just happened to be out alignment, so I had to scrub it off and mask and paint it. For the remainder of the decals I used water only and managed to get them all on with no further problems.
Completed.
