    Overall flat coat applied and then the canopies unmasked. It's starting to look as I intended.

    An outstanding performance already, Tom @tcinla
    The small last steps should not be an issue.

    I really like the weathered OD, Tom. Your skill and patience in doing the pre-shade mottle as well as numerous shades of weathered OD on top really paid off. I will be attempting something similar with the RLM 79 Sandgelb on my Bf-110. I strongly agree that it is important to vary the tones on a near monochrome paint scheme, particularly when weathered by desert conditions. Really looking forward to seeing the A-20 in the Headlines section-very near the finish line now.

    Calling it done. There was a point just before doing the final finish where I thought I wasn't going to get what I was going for, but when I flattened it down and added in the final weathering detail, it came out as hoped.

    Looks great Tom! That replacement rudder sure is a noticable improvement over the kit piece... from any angle. Looks great as usual, cant wait to read the historical write up on this one.

    Nice OD. Definitely captures the look of too many days exposed to the desert sun. Your mottling technique really works wonders. Looking forward to your MM write up.
