I would think very carefully before embarking on something of that size in natural metal. The photos confirm the decals you have for the grey version. |

ill post up photos later but, heres the plan wings are nearly complete, im hoping that i can paint them prior to fixing them to the main fuserlarge, as if i go for the grey jet, i will have to mask and paint the white walkway lines as i cant get any white ones i have 16, days to get this done, however im away for 4 days, im working 6 so in reality i have 6 days!! |

Looks good Mark but have you ever thought of one GB at a time to stop you panicking. |

Same comment Mark, just take it easy as it is supposed to be a hobby and to relax you. The day the pressure takes over is the day it is no longer a hobby.

the tube is to give the exhaust port some depth, as it wouldnt have a hole otherwise |
