MOST EXCELLENT! I notice you've even got the laminar contour on the wing too

But...is that a green exhaust stain I'm seeing?

But wait...theres more.
As per usual there are a few minor details to be added but I think, I may be starting to get the hang of this.
3 sqd RAAF Fanom, Italy. Sometime in 1944.

Looking very nice!

Some minor things; don't know if you've caught them yet.
There should be screws on the chin vent plate.

The stencil on the wing root area says "STEP HER" instead of "STEP HERE".
In the latest profile, the shadowing/highlighting on the nose immediately behind the spinner doesn't match up to the lighting on the spinner very well. It looks somewhat flat.

Hey you guys are good... but I did mention that there were a couple of thing that needed to be done and you found em both.(no doubt there are others) The missing 'e' in the stencil is a carry over from the previous profiles that had invasion stripes covering it.

AS for the highlight/shadow, I will give it another look, as always thanks for the feedback.
