The seat is about 99% done. Need to paint the O2 bottle (can't find the right color) and a remove before flight tag to be added much later.

I like using the green from Testors square bottle enamels for O2 bottles.

Is there no store by you that carries those paints? No Hobby Lobby, Michaels, or something similar?

Thanks guys!

Working on the gun now. Lots of PE there too. If it comes out looking good (and that's a big "IF"), I'll be opening the bottom to show off the gun.
