I still need to work on my precision with the airbrush, think it turned out alright anyways.

Album image #11
First paint color added, think the pre shading turned out pretty good! 🙂 
 

Album image #12
Right about here I realized I had painted the wrong colors.
The underside and half the sides are supposed to be sky blue.

Paint stripped, let's go again!  
 

Album image #14
DIY seat belts, brake fluid destroyed the decal. 
 

Album image #15
Painted, correct colors this time!
Pretty happy with it so far.

Finished!
The only thing I had real problems with was the masking of the cockpit, didn't turn out great.

My fourth kit and my best work so far, already looking forward to the next kit!
