To be fair, I have to agree with you there. But I am sure it's down to the fact that I am really enjoying the change from the "GR.4" that took an age to push over the line. Small update, got the visor cover based and changed the colour of the immersion suit neck. Not sure why I went "Paynes Grey" to begin with, but "Mig Tyre Black\Rubber" seems to be better. More soon. Tim

It’s beginning to get a bit frightening how realistic it is.

Gents, thanks for looking in and the comments. Mainly worked on the helmet detailing today and this is how things look now.
With a fair wind and a "Bank Holiday" Monday to come, should have this over the finish line soon. Tim

Thanks Paul. Decided to call it a day with this. If I go any further it may go pear shaped and then you will see one unhappy "Easter Bunny" Will add a couple of helmet tabs\pulls from "Tammy" tape, get a base and name plate mount it up and into the case. Hope you like. Tim

Tim, stellar craftsmanship on this! Your work on the intricate details like the O2 mask and the helmet stitching is really amazing. Great rendering of a great aviator!
