Folk do sometimes give me the fisheye but I often get a smile and a nod from the housekeeping staff when I go outside to spray. Sometimes I leave brushes , tweezers, etc. out on the table. They seem to be very careful to clean around my stuff. I think they appreciate that I am doing artwork. I need to leve them a tip

So it is my only day off ... progress
Glosscote and decals
Obviously I have to weather the decals to match the stripes and do the rest of the weathering to match

Bubba-san, that's freakin' looking good!
You really added tons of pretty with the detailing and the salt trick is spot-on.
Congrats, Ron.

Outstanding, amigo! What you think of as "quick builds" always look like prizewinners in my book!

Looks great, Ron - especially the cockpit/pilot. You should rephotograph it on your truck's diamond plate - without the motel in the background - It looks very BSG.

Great stuff. I'm not normally that taken with science fiction models but this is simply excellent. Or outstanding. Or both!

Now that's done like a true master craftsman! Man the Vipers they used on the TV show didn't even look this good!

Now that looks so cool on the diamond plate. I can juts imagine a Viper pilot making a model of his ride (like Adama making a sailing ship model)

Looks good as or better than models made for movies. With the great detail and weathering you kept it looking believably consistent as a used Viper from all angles. Well done :)
