Mike, anything else I miss or you want included just say mate lol 
Few more bits begun and finished.
Started to make some rope for general stowage
Also began adding the decals… Had a right arse ache with the top large hood one, it wouldn’t sit right or take the micro sol or set and I didn’t clean all of that away when I repainted it and it reacted so have had to clean back the paint and smooth it down ready to paint again.
You get masks for the stars in the Eduard set, so I’m going to use one of those for the big star on the hood.
Here’s the one on the rad flaps.
And from the front.
Completed rope and a coil of it
And this is the cotton I use to make the rope lengths and the method, very simple, cut 6 lengths of cotton, thread into the drilled holes in the clothes peg
Then twist until it’s all tight, weight and secure the other end so it’s all vertical and brush on Tamiya clear xww, I’m sure other clears would work just as well
Let it set over night and then cut to lengths required.
