FTJR, would you be willing to post more photos of that P40E RAAF No. 75 Squadron?  Also, what else is left to finish?

I dont really compare skinners against each other, there isnt anyone of you talented fellows that doesnt have something to learn from each other.  Besides, who am I to judge???  I can barely edit a sound file let alone try and skin, I about fainted trying to get the first M3 figured out.

Send it as is.  You could sit and dwell on it for weeks and you could always find more stuff to add/subtract/edit. 

I think she looks good to go.   :aok 

and thanks again!   :salute

no bulges on the ammo ejector plate? (or whatever its called)

personally I think you can do more...stain on belly is to even and smooth at least break that up
