    No, don't weather a plane with your daughter's initials on it 🙂

    Great work on the camouflage and the painted markings, Jeremy (@jmillan). Decals have come a long way toward looking presentable on models, but there is nothing that beats painted insignia. I have been experimenting with my wife's craft machines for cutting stencils, and it seems to work great as long as the markings aren't too small.

    This ones almost finished Just need to add a couple bits. I want to try and get the oil streaks underneath looking a little more wet. The flat coat definitely subdued them. I also got paint in side the canopy which seems to always happen when building it closed. I’ll have to work on that

    That turned out excellent, Jeremy. I really like your exhausts. I need to pull mine out and do it soon.
