Yeah, that's better! The lower contrast actually helps break up the form better. :thumbsup:

The dreaded Ghost Snail! It sneaks up on you in the dark and in a week or two it stains your uniform. If you stand very still for that long.......  :wacko:

Nice work on an unusual F-15. I did not expect a shark mouth too! Very cool!

No-one EXPECTS a sharkmouth, they're just sprung on us.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrowl...

Paint finished.  Ready for clear when the weather is suitable.

I have managed to lose the seat.  I dropped it and it made a successful bid for freedom under the shed door.  No sign of it now.
I've found a replacement and am painting it.
Pilot is painted.  Airfix 40's/50's dress with Mae West, flying jacket, flying boots...

Transfers are on.  A combination of Hasegawa F-15 Eggplane (stencils) and Italeri MC-202.
