Steve,

Very well done. The moss on the wing root is wonderful! I think you nailed the paint and oxidizing aluminum !

I agree with Freddy. You really did a wonderful job with your Focke-Wulf. Wrecking an aircraft is no easy task, in order to do it correctly that is. Good work all around. Russell

Excellent job Steve! It really looks convincing, a little creative photography/photoshop and it could be mistaken for the real thing!
