That's looking really good. Yes

That white looks like it would be close to this shade:

 

I've got a 1/24 resin model of this race car headed my way.  That Classic white might work.

That would look awesome make  sure you thin the white a little more then 2 %  several light coats gloss white enamel can be a pain to spray

Looking good! 

I'm re-starting the old Revell 1/144 E4B but doing it as a Northwest -200 instead. I had started it, messed something up so went back to square one. ;) Draw Decal had the scheme of the NW plane I came home from Desert Storm on so decided to model it.

Nice start, it is fun masking up those intakes! I built one of these when it was first released (brush painted and all). I also have one to do in 1/144 one day
