                        thanks y'all for your nice words.
                        it is a draken, first model after I bought my airbrush, which is a great thing to have and actually doesn't cost a whole lot (I spent 150 for a compressor and a dual action brush). but I still have problem with camo line: sometime leaks because lousy masking and still can't work out those nicely blend line....Disapprove [V]
                        anyway, a lot to learn and will be a lot of fun also
                        and I will see you guys around
