Panel lines and basic weathering done. Got the rivets on all the fuselage and working on the wings. Been trying to get the color right. If any of you have any suggestions since this is my first real non luftwaffe skin is would help alot.



Edit: Here it is with a test color.

My guess is that even the wings on the door in the Osprey book are artists "best guess" TK. Thats all I have.

Sent two new scans to you, let me know if you got them, I think it was the right email (otherwise somebodys going to be surprised  ;) ).

...looking good so far.
