    Beautifully done Dirk, great line and subtle weathering. Look great.

    Thanks for the kind words everyone. Its a little more weathering then I'm use to doing. Just about everything I've seen in the Typhoons in Action and Ospry's Aces books showed some well worn Typhoons. It's not as smooth and blended as I would like to see or have seen around here but it'll do. Those things should come in time.


    Regards,
    Dirk
