Dave,
   Beautiful job! As I said on your Under construction BLOG the colours are striking. The weathering is a fine bit of work and the details impressive, a model to be very proud of. 8)
   Very nice work throughout, well done!
Cheers,
Lance

I agree completely with all of the others. Beautiful scheme and decal work. I like the mud splatters, especially the tail.

Thanks fellas. I distressed the fuselage panels with a Dremel, which showed nicely under gloss but is less visible now it's Matt. Next time I'll keep the fuselage and cowlings glossy and the wings Matt I think.

I used DB paints on this. I'm a big fan now. They look super over a gloss black base.

Simply stunning, Dave!  Those DB colors really do the trick.  You've sold me.
