So I got the paint on trying a new technique and I'm pretty happy with it so far. Next I'll spray some gloss on it and apply the decals, then finish up with a little weathering. On to the pics (still using my phone, sorry).
So it's almost done, I only have a couple of loose ends to finish up and I'll take some better pictures and create a thread in the finished projects forum. Here are a few pics I took showing where I was at. The antenna seems like it's oversized in the pics and I have to believe it's because of the brightness of it and how the camera picks it up, it's actually the smallest gauge wire I have. I also have to fix the connections where the antenna splits, it's too bulky and out of scale.
Thanks for checking it out and comments along the way. Now to find a shake and bake and force myself to build it OOB.
