PeterOlsen Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 (edited) Oh wow thats brillant ! I love how you have the oil leak over the exhaust stain on the port fuselage side. I also like the feathered rain mark type streaking of the exhaust; verywell done indeed ! The underside looks fantastic ! Congratulations on an outstanding renovation !!! All the best, cheers, Peter Edited April 9, 2020 by PeterOlsen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K.Y.Czart Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 Renovation, yes? Rather, admit that you kept it in the open air for those 9 years. However, it gave him a lot of charm. Bravo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Mooney Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 Blooming heck, thats a bit special! Well done, could I ask what paint you used for the light blue/grey as I can't ever get it to look right. Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
