David, mate the F-51 looks awesome you have got the bare metal spot on. Can't wait to see it with the decals on

G'day Andy
thanks alot, i think the metal coat came out pretty good one thing i need to remember for next time is to make sure no dust or bits of whatever get onto the paint when drying or else they really show up (like ltitle hairs, argh i hate them)
cheers
p.s. Posted new pics on the gallery, use the same link to see them.

not bad David. For a wingy thing that is LOL :-)

:-) Thanks Cliff

Looks great David,
What did you end up using for the aluminum? Was it the Humbrol?
What ever it is look good.

G'day Skywrench
Yep i ended up using Humbrols Polished Aluminium for the overall colour, then used various shades of silver and aluminium mixed for various panels on the Bird.
cheers
