Well this is the last stage of preparation before final painting.

I thought i would get a few more decent shots whilst the primer

was still drying.

I will be painting her in top coat sometime this week.

Hi Phil
Why bother with a lightweight 250Kg why not look for a Max (2,500KG) to renovate!
Its been very interesting following this thread , thanks
 
Hi Satan,
Can't wait to see this one finished, good luck with finding the fins there must be a set out there...anyone?

Hi Steve

Glad everyones enjoyed the progress as i have.

The problem i have is there is a gap between my 50kg and the 500
which i would like to fill,and 250s seem very thin on the ground at the moment.
I will go up to a herman if one became available funny thing as a little while ago i was offered the full lengh remains of a parachute mine which would have been a challenge.
