Nice choice and will be following. I picked this one that kinda follows along with your nose art choice. I like the first one also.
May I ask what you did to the panel lines? raising them or deepening them. I havent taken mine out of the wrap for two years now lol.

Thanks MrClark and Johnny.
For me make panel lines and rivets is most pleasure step in building.
For me painting is, but not the scribbing part. Which tools do you like for this?
