It looks great, but shouldn't the prop have yellow tips?

Hi Steffen
Nice job! The yellow prop tips don't seem to show up in the reference photo, but maybe it was shot on ortho film?

Thanks Rowan!
I am on the jump, but I checked the Kagero Monograph and the pictures gave mixed results as to the visiblity of the yellow markers ...

Been following your build Stephen and Wow ! you did one super job on this build , your skills have improved on finishing , weathering . Very well done my friend

Thanks Terri!
I am not sure if I improved, I just test things from time to time and different originals need different style in weathering. I am more concerned that I improve on AFV weathering because I do not really succeed yet in that area of modelling...
Funny thing with the name, isn't it Maybe call Mr. Lawson Steffen from time to time so we both get our share of misspelling
cheers
