That's a beauty!  I really like the prop and the tires.  Looks absolutely real!

Not sure how I managed to miss this. I haven't seen this scheme before, you've produced a beautifully finished and very striking Pfalz.

Beautiful Burgund-wine Pfalz. Again, my favourite scheme! I see you did not get distracted by the hints that it might have had blue u/c struts...
