Well folks the time has come to make the decision.  

 

I am going to submit this to a magazine.  With that in mind this will be the last update until I am told no or it is in print.

 

Now the update...

 

 

Continuing with the weathering pastels were added to show exhaust staining.  I also added some on the exhaust pipes.  I added some black pastels to the wing roots to try to tone down the look.  

 

Pictures..........

 

 

Thank you all for following along.  

 

All comments, critiques, and criticism are encouraged.
