Looks good so far.
I'd mind some details like making the color difference between panels a bit more subtile. Now the brighter panels "jump" from the Jug.

Question Zulu, is that all your work or did you start from templates? I mean no disrespect, but some people re-color templates and consider it all their own work. I'm not saying you did or anything, but just asking. It's hard to give advice until I know the extent on what I'm advising.
If that is all yours it looks pretty good, nice strong details.
I do agree with Serval about the strong panels. The Spit looks more subtle but it's hard to tell without a closeup. It looks like you've got a good hold on the technical part of skinning

NP Zulu As I was saying, it's standard operating procedure in the aircraft skinning community so much that you never can tell what to look for when critiquing.

Your planes do look nice and solid. The color choice on the P-47 is interesting. Is this an invention or something real? I've never seen it and I'm interested.

Re: New skinner looking for advice on what i have dun so far

This is something that i made up as i do not fill i am at the point to be doing real skins yet i want to get the hang of it doing my own thing 1st when i have time to sit down and work out how to do everything i will then give it a try but at the mo if just uesing the templats layout and markings.

if u go and have a look at my photobucket page with the same link as what is in the 1st post u will see my new skin that i have just done the siver P47 here is the link again EAF19_Zulu - Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
