    What is shown in the pics is what common belief is, that Polish kept their planes in pristine condition, so I only added just a bit of weathering at the undersides, tad fading on topsides and some engine soot near the exhausts...

    ...and here she is with final coat on... Thanks for stopping by!

    Very nice subtle weathering, Spiros @fiveten
    What did you use to dirty up the panel lines on the top side of the wings.
