Tank panels are done

I should be picking them up tommorow after a spray up. I have seen them once before the decals were applied and they were flattened off for the pin stripes. Now they have two coats of laquer and apparently they shine according to Scrapp's

Heres a teaser
But I know you get the drift.

Your right theres no foolin' you guys

They are shiney though. I wanted metalflake but would have too raised edge. Just about to go and get them from down by the seaside.

Wheels are too precious to paint at the moment. Would prefer to keep a standard set and source another pair.

Fitted and very nice IMHO

I got the panels on. Please note the red is very hard to get metallic. It shines red but does look at times a burgundy wine colour. Sunshine is its friend.
I painted the air intakes black for a different look too.
Hope you like the look. The green is awesome.

Not sure if I like the screen but worth painting at time. Much prefer the carbon one.

I like the red side,not so sure about the other side,its good though having the option to swap and change in 30 minutes from standard to that and back again.

Cool

Does the gold stripe go round the tank painting as well as the tail?

Nice work Albie

Like Walpole I would prefer the red/white side, if it was all one colour rather than tricolour
