Thanks JHMouse ,it's this one
I apprieciate the tips and will use them in the future.
Maybe I just suck at photograpy I actually thought  this was pretty good :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:
This is my first double action airbrush, big learning curve

You're right: this IS pretty good just the way you painted it.  I pulled my earlier post.  Probably the least friendly advice is the unsolicited variety.  Paint on, brother!

You just carry on what you're doing matey - i'm loving everything that you've done so far...can't wait to get to know you better!

You've been a real breath of fresh air around here, and your passion is contagious.  Hell, i haven't even fondled a kit for months and all of this creativity that you are leaking has even got me snipping things off sprues again...don't stop!

The mouse is a genius.  This is a fact - we all know it, no matter how humble he is.  There are very few people that i would actively solicit advice from, and for sure, he's one.  I know for a fact that the last thing he would want is to be Buzz Killington!   

Keep on keeping on buddy!

Hey man I have that exact one!

I had an aztec before. The Paasche is a great airbrush. The only advice I can give is get a fine needle and don't be afaid to make the paint really thin.

I love the colour scheme and the layout.

Get this Cheese to sick bay!

Bloody heck STS, that bird is amazing. The more I look at it, the more the Hellcat look so right with the Typhoon front end, I wonder how it would have performed for real. Well done on a damm fine job.
