Ok so I've nearly quit

What both of you say is correct, we all like the details My point was more about exaggerated details that don't follow the real form more so than the exaggeration itself. Not that what is shown is bad necessarily.
Maybe a good way to look at this has more to do with consistency. I can't help be see how close to being perfect this plane is and so little details like noticeably recessed access panels and hard chiselled fabric surfaces stand out on what otherwise looks very realistic. Of course it is about taste too but at this high level constancy of every little part is pretty important
And of course, they're only suggestions

Very NICE work!
Two thing though; on the underside, you've painted most of the access panels darker. I understand what you doing but they end up looking recessed quite a bit from the surface of the wing. They should be flush with the surface or at worst a little raised. Maybe try taking some of the darkness off of them and maybe putting your highlighted edge on the edges of the access panels instead?
Also, your fabric looks really cool but it doesn't look anything like the real aircraft fabric at all.


These aren't D9 wings but here's my solution on the access panels and fabric-
Attachment 1010
Not better but more realistic on those 2 points even though my fabric has WAY too much detail considering how smooth these were in real life :P

That is a great piece of skinning BLOWHARD!
Is it for IL2?(I guess not...)
If yes, is there a place that anyone can find your work uploaded?
