    Nice profile!
    Only thing i would point out is the glass effect and the bulge looks to bulgy (under the engine) ... but it might just be me forgetting what a spit looks like

    Others might comment on the invasion strips being straight. They were pretty much slopped on hours before the invasion, so they were all wobbley. But i don't mind it! Maybe this one was flown by a caring pilot

    Can't wait to see it done!

    I'd say you have a very good start here, but it needs more shape definition. Add some shading to the fuselage. I believe you haven't finished the wing so I'll leave that aside. The guns, however, also need some treatment to "stand out" against the background (engine).

    Looks very promising!

    Exhaust stacks?

    Otherwise, ditto the additional shading/shape definition and I think you'll have a winner!

    I agree with what the other guys have suggested, and add that you may want to tone down the panel lines, and make the removable panel lines around the engine bolder. Also check the shape of the invasion stripes under the wing they look flat and take no account of the curved leading edge, its an area that I have(and continue) to struggle as well.

    Keep posting WIP's I enjoy watching the evolution of a profile, as much as the finished item.
