Thanks very much for the kind words, fellows. I will try and get some of the other pics in shape for posting. I have a small area for photog, so I have a lot of post production cleanup to the backgrounds.
This model features the WNW streak decals from the DVII series.

the streaking decals look great, and your attn to detail with the overpainting worn out etc` from a well used tripe looks quite realistic.

I agree that the finish is very well executed. The model looks realistically 'clapped out'.
