Nice!!! :shoutout: :shoutout: :shoutout: :shoutout: :shoutout: Such a funky looking front end with the streamlining around the engine and prop. :hmm: It almost looks out of proportion, but it works… :wink: Beautiful work!

Definitely hear what you're saying in regard to pushing the decals any further Remco and that's a good idea with the wash to make the colors on the decal match the tail.

Coming in on the tail end of this project but it's a good-looking build going on so far.
