You're good with these planes, is that the Tamiya smoke you used on there

Thanks, Robbo! I used Tamiya Smoke on the Coroguard section on the spine and on the segments around the afterburner area. For the regular natural metal areas, I just did a panel line wash of Lamp Black Oils/Mineral Spirits.

A creative and practical problem solver you are, Ian. Thanks, Jeff! Unfortunately I get forced into quick problem solving due to lack of engineering and/or proof-reading from some of these kit companies.

I made the last of the sub-assemblies, last night. I fashioned intake and exhaust covers out of sheet stock with "L-Beam" enhancements. I also got the red applied to the gear bays doors. Tamiya Panel Line wash was applied to the doors and wheels, as well. The seat and canopy will be last and then we should be about done.
