Aha thought so ! 😉 -
Did you change the paint color on the lower half from silver to black ? Or is that the blue mat under the model messing with the color ? Either way still a beautiful model. Nice work Craig !

It appears to be the same pattern as on this 1917 Albatross D.Va at the Olde Rhinebeck Aerodrome Photo from Rhinebeck Aerodrome website.

I second EG also.

Oh that flag will be a challenge!
-
Here it is along side the B36, B17 and F4. Please excuse all the dust, it's been hanging for decades. I have no other space to display them.
-
It's a silver color. Don't remember if I painted or what. Probably should take it down from ceiling and clean it up. It hangs next to a 1:48 scale C-130 which is painted in camo with rear door lowered. I also have an unopened 1:48 AC-130 Gunship kit.

Hast tho no pity ! {double chuckle}

Yes but now some of the decals have dried out and are hanging down in places, some are missing, and it’s covered in dust.
-
Yeah so I noticed !

Continental Marine 1775 Crow Indian 1850-1860

After following the link you posted and looking around, I'm very tempted. Saw 2 I liked. How’s the delivery time ?

I have a completed B36 hanging in my basement, from about 20 years ago. I think the wingspan is 39 inches. Awesome aircraft
-
Yea, he does look cool !
-
Very well done Alan! And the helmet came out well, looks well worn.
-
Boy is that red line subtle in photo 1
-
But they taste better than they look 😋

Be very gentle with the green stick ! I would leave the collar as is if it's that fragile. It will okay if it's a tad tarnished
-
Like the color on the figure Alan, looks real good 👍 helmet looks nice and shiny also
-
Alan, if you don’t have one of these WeCheer micro engravers (misnamed IMO) I highly recommend them. The take all the standard Dremel bit, get into tight places, portable, cordless and will stall if you apply too much pressure. I have two, one corded and one cordless (shown in link). You can use the cotton Dremel bits to do light buffing.

This is the green stick honing compound I use. Along with my stropping pad. As an aside, you can use this stopping pad to rehone, resharpen, your Exacto knife blades. Stropping pad By the way the stick will last several lifetimes. I inherited it from a fellow woodcarver when he passed. Here's a couple links Strop pad and Small green stick

Take some jewelers rouge on a Q-tip, try polishing it with that, it's a little grittier than silver polish. Finish it with silver polish. Another trick if you have a woodcarver friend, ask for a small chunk of their green stropping wax. Rub the Q-tip over the wax to load it up, then rub the helmet. I use the green wax on a piece of leather to get a very sharp edge on my knives, woodcarving as well as pocket knives.

I'm here too! Up in the nose bleed section.

The toilet would have been less costly !
