    Looking really nice, Bernard (@lis). The preshading is working out well, and the varied painting on the top colors will look perfect.

    After painting gun barrels some nasty black dot need to be repainted. As usual corrections don’t look so good as before mistake was made.

    After first coat of gloss clear. In few places in wings edge white is more intense because of this paiting corrections.

    Especially the tires do have a nice worn look.

    Technical stencils. There were a ridiculous amount of them and I'm not convinced it looks nice once I put them on.

    The stencils look great on, my friend @lis! True, a number of them were gradually overpainted once in the field.
