    Looks so good I could eat it - :popcorn  ...no really, I could.
    Forgive me if you've mentioned it before but what do you use to clear coat ?
    I know it's "varnish" but is it a certain type/brand ?
    Thanks.

    Thanks:lol  `i`m not sure he would taste to good.
    I use a coat of spray gloss varnish (humbrol at the moment) followed 24 hrs later by a coat of spray satin varnish.
    The gloss provides great protection & the satin takes some of the shine off the gloss.

    that wing mod is great! coupled with your l337 painting skills.. i even like this better than acid storm!

    btw, i'd love to know how you do your highlighting technique on the larger panels/areas. do you just paint them on the edges instead of building up the blend with multiple shades like in your tutorial?

    Wow, the alt mode looks super. I mean, this whole thing is great, but the jet just really shines.

    Very cool.

    I kinda wish the wings could flip down in robot mode, but it's still a top notch custom.

    Painting is great!

    I'm surprised the jet mode works so well. It's just fantastic. I'd prefer it over the original one any day.
