Maybe you guys should do separate threads, perhaps? It would be simpler for readers to make comments on the drawings.

John: it's great to see you back working on profiles!

comments??PLS

Guys--nice efforts!!

A few comments for your consideration:

Lower engine nose lines on boom don't look quite right--nose/intake area appears too "puckered" vs. my reference material. Maybe worth checking against other drawings. Glacier Girl attached for thought.
Instrument panel needed (wip?)
Shadows need refinement--horizontal tail stub shadow appears to be from direct overhead sun but is way too long, while wing shadow on boom seems to be from low sun off left wing. Also, the boom intake "thingie" that Blowhard mentioned needs shading on boom.

In any event, great work--keep them coming!!
