Just caught this build, very cool plane and the short history on the plane and where she was built is extra cool.
Nice clean building and painting.

All, Thanks for your comment.  Just arrived home - some painting BS colour interior of Fuselage.   Raf Pilots & Crew put in Cockpit and Navigator / Wireless Operator room. so thinking about it need some add on of small map on the desk ( Not on Hobby Bench lol ) by my printer out. Looking at RAF Pilot & Navigator`s White Flying Grove thin leather comfortable & easy accessing with buttons, steering, joystick, Pencil, switches, knob switches and etc.. And Brown Leather thick suitable for all Gunners due Coldest. so won`t there on my Hobby bench tonight today due going to Models Club ( Every month ).

All Modeller, Thank you for your comment. Back on my bench.  painted on sixteen x 250lb Bomb.  Mr suface black primer filled on Fuselage`s Joint. ~ Thick tapes covered on the rivets ( for Rivets protection keeping away from sanding & files )  Make new styrene parts add on @ scratch-built by me.  Bomb door bay installed on fuselage bottom. |

Today - Heavy rainy and Temperature dropped so happy & Good quiet Back on my bench for all day !  Four Props - Cleaning up so nice crispy !  Should be another one aerial on fuselage lower rear. so Airfix`s plastic part not included of 2nd Aerial. Check out on Instructions - Stirling had Two Aerials on fuselage lower rear.  Scratch-Built - New one 2nd Aerial add on by me.    Carefully with Airbrushing with 1st primer and 2nd Painting so very easy job ! I don`t want paint filling over all rivets. Nice rivet show details. |

Andy - thanks. Decal marking looking as real painted ;-) not fog marking. I use decal soft then paint varnish cover on decal. so decal soft are very useful.
