I've already learned a lot from you guys and other resources I've found. It's not just about slapping some paint on something and slapping it together. Should strive to make it look "authentic". I was wanting to have my F-22 Raptor ready to submit for the May MOM contest, but Started working on some things last night to make it look REAL!
