Pretty much finished, unless you guys notice anything wrong. Gotta step away from it and clear my mind. I think it'll be great to have a olive drab '38L available.

Too bad that bird didn't have the dragons on it, but sweet looking none the less.

Looks great, but perhaps you can fade the drab a bit... Make it look a bit more aged..

Thanks, all. She was submitted before Christmas. I took Avaro's advice and tried to lighten up the paint as much as I could-- I found a Photoshop tutorial on fading paint and tried the technique it described. Also added a lot more paint chips along the panel seams and changed the color of the fuel caps from red back to green.
