Yes, indeedy! Looks very nice!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Looking very nice Stik. 
Spinner stripes are always fun. Did you paint those or use a decal?

Thanks Stuart & Lyle!
Thanks Chris! I painted the spinner putting down the Yellow first, then masking with that Tamiya vinyl masking tape. It's great for compound curve areas like spinners.

That's a great looking plane, Carlos! Also your lighting's impressive! Although it's reflective surfaces the pic has outstanding contrast and depth.
Cheers,
