Joe.....I used Tamiya Titanium ......thanks.

John... that color looks great. I thought it was the Pale Metal from Alclad. Looks like I am going to have to add some Tamiya titanium to my collection.

The rivets look great. Did you airbrush a black circle with a stencil and put a speck of white on top? I've seen some 1:1 rivets painted that way.

Rick.....I hand drilled a couple of turns into the body .......then I dabbed some 'Folk Art' acrylic silver paint diluted with water into the holes then wiped off the excess paint......thanks.

Simply gorgeous, John. How did you get the simulated bolt heads to line up so well in a straight line? Do you use Future to glue them?
