Been experimenting with a new metal look and thought I'd try it out with this one.   This is way early on - lots of errors to yet fix and weathering, scratches and detail to add.  Haven't balanced the rivet or screw layers yet, or added panel section texturing.  The checkerboard nose is a real pain and its still not quite right but I'll get there.
