Cool deal, the scheme I want is the same way for load out. Are you getting paint mask from tailor made?

to blackcat if you read back a few it was mentioned the shape of the tire would help. The tire is pretty close in size. That's why I mention using a 1/6 scale tire from the f16 wheel since it looks closer to the real tire. I'm not sure why Anton used a 1/5 tire in his above post.

Cockpit looks great as well, hope I get to see it in person this year still trying to decide on the D or F model. Tank idea is great by the way that was the one thing I didn't like about big f-15 was not being able to get to the saddle tanks for maintenance.
