The first real coat of paint goes on the Gannet

Here is the AEW3 with its first coat of Duck Egg Green - Sky. I did notice that I hadn't fitted any of the etched brass aerials and the rudder (gulp) so, having found out in time, I was able to add all of them. You should be able to see these from the photos.

Next step is a coat of Klear and then I will mask it up for the upper paint - Extra Dark Sea Grey. Note that I am putting a coat of Klear on before masking. Maybe I won't drag off any of the Sky when I remove the tape!
