hi excellent natural metal finish, not a shiny aluminum, but quite dull according to an "operational aircraft " finish..... well done Alain -
Hi For my part, I would do the "surgery" on the bottom,......... to be honest, I would catch up the fuselage/ nose profile with putty, it seems that there is barely 1mm (more or less) between the fuselage and the nose.. I use for this kind of work, putty for body car repair (finishing putty) easy to sand down, can be engraved, it's a bi -component, putty + hardener ... it could be worth considering Alain

Hi it's a very nice little " vignette" , very realistic , the battle damages are well done , you got it !!! .. the guy on the tail plane looks a bit "relax" compare to the dramatic moment depicted ,I presume it's the typical " the Brit sense of coolness "(or composure) Alain

Hi great job on the wheel wells , I 've to admit that I was waiting for you in these particular areas .....if you're not a fetishist, what would it be if you were? Maybe not fetishist, but perfectionist, if you didn't make such detailing , somethings would have been missing ....hat off Alain

Once the color base is painted , you can use these weathering effect stencil tools , there are various designs , you spray a light layer of dark alu , then a black wash .... easy !!!! ..... Alain for example
