Must have been a P-47 with the ramjets from an SR-71. Just too fast for photos.

Have faith, friends. Our man will pull through! That, or it will be the post with the most replies about nothing...

Great job on bot hkits! They both look to be coming along very well. Looking forward to the 18 pics.

I think I would have traded positions with you while I was in the Gulf in the summer of '00. Too hot there for me (117 in my shop.)

Serve well, comrade in arms.

Looks great.

I used the search function of the forum and found a bunch of past threads regarding panel lines and sludge method.

It looks like and sounds like a pretty good technique. I plan on using it now on the Bf109 I'm building. (My first plane). I've used oil washes and pastels on armor but I was hesitant on what to do for aircraft. Not any more after seeing leitch's work. Impressive. Thanks for sharing.
