Here is one of the Skysweeper jets converted and mostly painted.  I still have some detail like a light bar and some Police Decals.  I tried to evoke the idea of a "Black and White" Police car with the paint job.

The rescaling that you do is very, very effective.  8)
My LAF Gallery is HERE
Minis (foot & mounted) finished in 2025 = 74

I think it all looks great. I really like your blog, and considering your past work, I look forward to seeing what else you come up with. INSPIRATION!
Thanks for sharing.

Looks good, though if I were you I'd consider painting some of the panels on the cockpit blue/black instead of white to break up that big expanse of white and disguise the cockpit more.

The old Ironworker magic touch is still there! Even though not quite finished, Skysweeper looks fantastic. The paint scheme looks perfect for the job.

It is possible to make a silk purse out of a pig's ear  lol
