the finish on mone was not perfect and a bit better or at least less imperfections than your pics show. im satisfied with mine as is and the more detail in the paint the more chance for things to go wrong. i got the white with splash paint on it and the paint it self is good but there are patches of dull or spalsh from thinner maybe used to clean up tape lines. at a standing position outside in the sun it is amazing for the price. and i would not hesitate to buy another pilot plane. the new mb339 being made for bananna hobby is made by them and looking good in reports so far on prototype....cost is almost a grand more than the predator but it is turbine ready at 2500.. and that is less than turbine ready predator from chief aircraft...
