Airfix SEPECAT JAGUAR GR1 1/48 by Smithy

Coming along nicely, Smithy.

The Jaguar always looked to me like a mini version of the much lamented TSR2

Yes I see what you mean.

I’ve had to pause for a few days. I applied too many coats of gloss white, chasing the correct shade of grey, that it refused to properly cure. It dried on the surface but when I tried masking tape over it I realised how soft and vulnerable to scratching it was.

I’ve discarded my gloss paint! It is very old, which might be part of the problem.

I thought I would let you know that I am still here, watching paint dry.
