  2. Nice results, Predrag. I have yet to try these kits. Yours is inspiration.

  3. Wonderful all around. The checkered cowl is exceptional. Are the tail bands painted rather than decals as well?

  4. Superb build and excellent painting, Predrag @pedja
    Especially the cowling checker pattern, must have been a lot of work.
