Thanks for giving me the best sci-fi prize for thi year. 
I'm really proud of it, and a part of this prize (maybe the back of the sheet ?  ) should go  to the builder, my friend Pavel (Paul), as i just finished his model with a new painting, and adding some parts...
But around fifteen years after he abandoned it on his scrapyard !

My achievement process :


The original (unfinished) painting. I have added the red and white (tail) parts to give a more agressive look. The second cockpit (center of the wings) is not fixed and the front turret is removed.


Now an undercoat of grey and white.Guns and various parts are masked, especially the front canopy. You see an horrible gap between the 2 half fuselage. Time to use filler and sandpaper.


The final colors before applying decals, washes and other finitions.

Finally, this is also a nice lesson : a toad can become a princess, or an unsatisfactory building can be reborn later. It's not a matter of time, but inspiration... So avoid to trash your missed projects, who knows ?
