Very, very nice work.  I was about to ask where you got the decals for the nose when I realised they were painted on. :)

For those of us not up to Les's painting standards, there is always this option:



With these decals:

Les,  you should be proud of what you did.  Although the decal option might have been easier, it takes true skill do do what you did.  It is outstanding!!!
