I was helped with a lot of photos, but it was still a harrowing task. I just couldn't get any decent side views of the nose that would fit the skin...

Anyway, I ended up drawing by hand. All the rivets and panel lines are over-drawn, but I still need to do something about the shadow lines etc. Anyway, ready enough for an outing and a promise of more to come.

Finished! ...and yes, that is yours truly in the back seat ;-)

You may argue about taste as much as you want - it is a real world paint and somebody must love her!

She'll be up on Avsim as soon as I have written the readme and zipped it all up.

Nice paint Chris :thumbsup:

Not my particular cup of tea but as you rightly say, beauty is in the eye of the beholder so someone out there must be completely in awe :)

Very nice Chris, downloaded and installed. Where does it usually fly from (probably know if i'd RTFM), as I feel the need to put it into my AI setup! :roll: :yipeee:

Tim Arnot, where are you?

Blame it on him! All he ever told me was "My local airfield" - perhaps he didn't want to give anything away?
