    Sanding down the bottom of wheels to give it the weighted look.

    Shots of the bottom to show off the pre-shading done before painting the Sky-Type S. A little more weathering was added after the gloss coats was applied.

    It was a good decision to get her out of that dark corner, Bob @v1pro
    She looks great on the headlines.
