Very nice! I've always wondered how you paint the gear door outlines red without making a mess of it. When I did them, they always turned out sloppy.

so much comments, I see you like more A-7 s.

The redlining is made with red edding permanent marker, I us it for this and for transparent position lights, works good and easy.

nathan: HB has lot of weapons include and MER, but don´t need this on a Bicentennial bird, TER is often seen on this a/c in emty configuration, and TER went to an A-4 :outtahere:

more pics the next days..

Awesome work!

I use a Shaprie Acrylic paint pen to do the red outline on the gear doors.
