PM me the method, I have many thinks to learn... maybe I could learn you how writting backstories ;)  Seems to be an honest trade no ?
The paint I use is old... I need to buy another.
Hell, I have difficulties preserving my paints... tends to dry too quick.  <_<

Apart from the paint, I like this thing...

Get something to thin the paint to make it more usable and use the best brush you can get. Sorted!  :)

Ok, that's works... pics to come quickly (you'll see the fuselage plug, it was made from... cardboard  B)

Maybe its stupid, but would it be possible to remove the engine by opening an acess  door located on the belly ? (main problem in this case would be ground clearance!)
Not easy, but maybe less complicated that removing the wing, as in the standards Harriers...
(I'm just asking if the P.1154 would have had this problem).

Et voila... wet painting (I had atempted something on the belly, but it looked bad, so I removed it before taking the photo).

the access door for removing the engine would be located between the strakes (ventral fins ?)...

Merci! The paint is Humbrol 96, but it is rather old... I have to improve that. Plan to buy some tomorrow, but I'll be out for two days (until 28th December, my sister's birthday).

This plane is a mix of P.1154  Harrier T-10 and JSF. Lot of fun building this... the result is what I wanted, a cool two-seat supersonic V/STOL fighter, Harrier derivative.
