Very cool!

The camouflage was more hard-edged and a bit shinier than you have it though:

hi santi,

will get back to you on this when i get home from work, the shape is off.

Looking pretty solid! I'd check the shadow of the gear door overlap. It looks like a hard edged offset layer in black. Check those reference photos Skyraider posted and see what the real gear doors looked like.

tank you friends for info and suggestions
I just made some little corrections on the profile, this weekend I'll try to finish this color profile... I hope...

hi mate,

lost the file i was looking for but i can just point out a slight error on your highlight, the lower main intake needs shaping, highlight top darken lower, don't forget to reduce it as you blend into the fuselage, at the moment it looks flat also you need a gap between spinner and engine cowling

Thank you for your suggestion JMSmith
I made some correction and added new details...
