Re: Airfix 1/48th Jaguar
That looks really nice! I've got fond memories as that bird as the display aircraft! looks like you've done an outstanding job with the black finish- tricky to get right without making it toylike!
how did the Eduard PE work out for you? I've got a nice load of prepainted PE turning up for the toom! Looks like it'll really set the pit of nicely! Those cables in the u/c bay will help busy it up as well!!!
Looking forward to seeing this one progress!!!

The eduard pe set was great some bits i had to leave off because they were just too fiddly! but i'm happy with the results.
Heres a quick update, as the black paint is still curing i've added some wiring to the u/c legs:
Tommorow should have the final bits of fuselage assembly completed and the canopy attached then paint the u/c legs add some wiring to the doors then future & decal hoping to be finished by the time the weeks out.
Cheers for looking
