Bit of filling and priming, then added rivets and panel lines back with a small sharpened bit of brass tube in a hand chuck and a ply guide.

Finally a quick trip down to Rainbow paints who were extremely helpful matching the colours for me, highly recommended for anyone who needs specific matched paint. Then fading in the new grey and black paint with an airbrush, bit of flatting and polishing and she's done!

I feel sorry for the next bird you hit...they don't stand a chance with all that carbon.

Admire your patience working with the sticky stuff which i invariably manage to spread on the wrong place. ~ Give me a bit of alloy and a machine anyday.
