    Love it! I recently purchased a used Freewing 80mm A-10
    It's nicely weathered but I do love that scheme.

    When I’m using my airbrush to paint my foamy’s I like to use paper as a template to get clean lines.
    Amazing job btw

      Thanks Shaun. Great suggestion. In a case like this with the lines you want the smooth transition as it's more scale.
