I completely re-did the cockpit over the weekend. I discovered that I didn't paint enough blue on the side which made the red stripe too long. The lettering needed to be at more of an angle too. Much happier now. I also forgot to put the stars and stripes down the pant leg of my figure. That is now done as well. Yikes! He needs some touch up! Added the dzus and round fasteners to the nose and also the wicker bills. Painted the engine cover and started adding the decals. Will dress it up with fasteners later. More later! Stu

Getting pretty close. I am still working on the rear wing and need to add some more detail here and there but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Stu

Thanks for the kind words and special thanks to Michael. With out his great decals I would have never been able to recreate the gold leaf numbers and Evel lettering. Last installment! Stu

About two years or so ago, ProBoards rolled out a major update which changed some of the acceptable syntax of posting images. Which means older threads here do not always show the images anymore. I went ahead and fixed this thread but it is a labor intensive process so it cannot be done to all old threads.
