Very impressive, I haven't a lick of talent but my old building partner in NY painted lead soldiers for people to earn his modeling money. Painted me a pilot that looks just like me, we had never met in person but he did it from a photo. We had a lady in our club that painted pilots for people and she made quite a lot of extra cash doing it. I think your zombie is done well enough for you to do the same thing. Best pilot I have seen in a long time.

I didn't paint a zombie pilot, but I did pick up a dog turd and put it in the cockpit. Looks better to me.

You better wait till it dries out before you do any inverted flight or slow rolls, it might get messy in your canopy.

I guess his Pilot is Mr. Hanky from South Park?

My friend mounted some red LEDs in the dash so he can light up the cockpit in flight.
