De-seamed body and used a sharpie to pin point them before sanding and a small sink mark on the wing needed attention, After a a quick degrease it will be ready for primer

A good start, what colour are you thinking of for this one?

 

[yak face]

Great to have you in on this one Ben . Its a fantastic choice , I love these ever since I saw one a few years ago in exactly the same colour as the box art. It looked amazing and sounded even better! my vote is for the orange, cheers tony

 

[papa 695]
