Thank you guys for the kind words .
John Peter did offer his insight and it was of great help. I didn't see it the way he did and when I tried it I really liked the tones I achieved.
I didn't think I was to bad a painter before but I always thought I was missing something. he help me find that.
I just took some pictures of my latest progress got both arms started and the life preserver finished . the gas mask is also finished. the letters and the ordinance logo took me forever to paint. I hope you gents like it so far.

Very nice indeed Rick - the detailing is superb. I do admire your painterly style as well - really nice brushwork. Well done.

Peter,Jim and BigGreg it has been fun to do a small conversion and trying the new ideas that Peter showed me was refreshing.
