Nice skin :aok

The brit boys love to paint their planes
with yellow on the wings and upper
sides. They have more losses at own
ack than on german groundfire :lol

That looks like it'll be very nice Kev.  A Pony that is distinctive from other Ponies.  I like it.

Rivets are a little too pronounced IMO.  Not sure if you've tweaked that or not, just giving my opinion. :)

Other than that, it looks incredible!

Yeah white rivets are a little over visible, was just doing sections to see overall look, once all rivets in place then will do the overlay and erase.

Update -

Disabled highlighted rivets temporarily

Need feedback on -

Chipping: not complete just general feeling about it.
Screws/fasteners: Tried 'new' ones, look at previous pics, which is better?

Thanks
