The included metal gear set is garbage: flashing, "tumors," broken bits, bent bits that will break if you try to correct their angle/shape

Thanks guys. I'm still pretty new to the preshading process, and the unique wear-and-tear that USMC/USN jets get.

This is a lovely result, it looks very lifelike, coloration and stains are spot on 👍
(BTW: You may have forgotten the red strobes on the fins 🙂 )
