Very well done. I think you gave this black bird a interesting look. 👍

Thank you everyone for your words 🙂
I wasnt very happy with the final photos I made, they were a bit "burnt" and kind of "orangish", they didnt show the real black of the model.
So this afternoon I changed a few things in the studio and I made new photos. Now I do like the result 🙂

Very nice work! I just purchased this Tamiya kit and it's up next in my queue (as soon as I finish the 1/48 Hasegawa Hurricane Mk. IIc on my bench.
