Supermarine S-5

Well thought I'd show something that's been on the back burner for a few months now. I started it at the beginning of the year, But made the mistake of rushing into it. 2/3 of the way in I had to redo the panel lines on the radiator and delete a lot of work This took the wind out of my sails and I lost interest in it for a few months, But I thought I'd give it another go.

This is a Supermarine S-5 which won the 1927 Schneider Trophy for Britain in Venice Italy. I'd like to thank Blowhard for he's tip on adding green, yellow and brown to the bare metal. I'd already added black and blue to it. I'm not to sure about the shade of blue that the S5 was painted in, I know it was a lighter shade than the S6. Later on it was painted in the same colour has the S6 but in 1927 this was not the case. Any comments would be most welcome from you guys
