Well isn't that just lovely! 

 

Loving this. Really have a soft spot for the O-2, and have at least two in the stash. Really want to get mine started at some point too. Looking forward to paint! Do you have a scheme in mind already?

Thanks for the encouragement!

The first of the two trim colors is on after a full day of masking...well not all day, I stopped for coffee and lunch and stuff. Anyway, a couple of pics of the model in it's masked up and painted glory, awaiting the second trim color.

..always had a soft spot for civvie stuff - particularly ex military, or the other way around

 

..and now it's like a suspense movie where we can't wait to find out what happened next!

Thanks for the positive comments men!

Masking off, definitely some remedial touch up to do here n there what with blue paint creeping in on the white (really gotta learn to buff that tape down)

Chris that's a sharp-looking scheme, I like it! Definitely a far cry from the Lynx!

I don't know if you did so, but I've taken to laying down a coat of the base after masking, and then doing the new colour/s - that's helped minimise seepage in my experience.
