Thanks, Vac.

Image size is 18,000 x 6,500 px. I work at 1:10 scale, it makes the maths easier!

Superb!

The wing and its root do look much better now.

You are a sad, twisted little man. You have my sympathy.

Here's the next instalment. The fin badge needs a revision, but I have a decent photo now so "I fix, Mr Fawlty!".

Revised as promised ... I was mucking around with an extra Overlay layer, but I stopped that. It was looking gaudy. This still doesn't look like it does on in Photoshop. Maybe it's the JPEG-ing.

Hey Grubby!
Is it painted blue on the upper surfaces and tail, or is the whole thing (minus the markings of course) bare metal? I think, if the a/c is in fact all bare metal, that the blue color seems too bright or is a funky shade. I know that I struggled with the same thing when working on the F-104.

If it's a color issue with the Jpeg, then might I suggest you export as a PNG? The quality seems to be much better.
