I just told her what you said. If you ever come to visit me, prepare to get bit. After we drink a bunch of beer.

They way it will go is Beer then Bites so put that in your day planner.

Don't worry, Tim, I'm sure someday you'll have the chops that other birds do. ;)

Anyway, pre-shading is done. I used MM Dark Tan for this:

Pro tip; Don't ever slam a 5hr Energy Drink prior to pre-shading :gogo

Thanks for looking. As always, any comments or suggestions are welcome.

Been getting things done with this. Not nearly enough though. I also had to fix some things. I totally forgot to post progress picks here. Probably because I am a horrible, lazy person.

Top coat was sprayed about a week ago:

Silly Putty applied and dark color sprayed:

Whoops! The nose looks horrible:

So, I attempted to fix it....DAMMIT!

Fixed it again and painted the yellow theater bands:

I used MM Sand and Dark Earth for the topside and a mixture of Tamiya X-14 and XF-18 for the Azure on the under surfaces.

I had a few areas where the paint leaked under the mask that I'm going to fix after all the decals are on. My reasoning is that I don't want to have to wait for the paint to dry. I've started the decals but only have a few on. I'll post more pics when they are done.

Thanks for looking. As always, any comments or suggestions are welcome.
