weathering begins

Donald Dickson II
Well hello there! Looks great!

Augie
Thanks Don 🙂

Augie
So weathering is mostly done, just need to do the doors and perhaps a little cleaning up.
Ready to hang the doors and training rounds, then that should be her about done!
Perhaps once done will start on a P-51 in 1:24...

Thanks Hans 🙂
