A fine body of work. I especially like the treatment of the natural metal finishes-very convincing. If I had to pick a favorite of the lot, I'd go with HL C, but then I'm partial to natural metal razorbacks.

Great collection of a great plane, Raul! Last year I also built "Rabbit/Black 88" but in quarter scale, together with "Expected Goose", a P-47 N. I like your collection.

Happy modelling

That is really beautiful work...and in 1/72 scale, it's positively brilliant !
