    Nice to hear from you Santino! It's been a while!

    Very good! I would just add some more cast shadow to that sort of jack above the wheel.

    Santino,

    Hey everyone, I've been away ! Missed me ?

    Good work Sir. May I suggest you change the darkness/ lightness of certain parts? For example the push rods were usually a lighter density alloy, meaning these would be lighter. The tail wheel casting itself is always steel - usually darker,

    Only a suggestion for the purposes of purist illustration,

    It looks good! But I think you'll find the lower edge of the upper half of the wheel fairing doesn't have a rounded edge. It was meant to mate with the lower moving part of the fairing which you've chosen to leave off. Will you do one with the whole fairing as well?
    I'm pretty sure there aren't any screws on the edge of that piece either. The screw on the forward part of the fairing is in the wrong place too.
    Loads of details on this one! What drawings are you using?




    FAST AND BULBOUS!
