Thanks Mike - I appreciate it!

It's not bad for some rattlecan red and some brush work.

Thanks John! I do hope he likes it - I've just got to figure out how to wrap the thing now!

Great painting is great painting, Stuart, and doesn’t matter how you did it. I celebrate your strengths as a brush painter! I still think an air brush is most useful for sprayed camouflage or large surfaces, and in projects like yours it’s an effective and efficient way to block in colors.
Make more models!

Thanks Bruce!

I agree with you Bruce, sometimes it's just easier to paint with what you've best with. I have been practicing with my large area painting though - my Tiger is brush painted.
