That's it finished. The canopy made me cross eyed! o_o o_o I tried out some non metal metallics on the headlights and wheel hubs. It's me first attempt and I think it worked for most of it, but two of the hubs were a bit beat up, I think it only works on smooth surfaces...

Bloody brilliant, mate!
 :-* :-*

That canopy would have made me (even more) boggle-eyed too.
You did a cracking job with it.
The rest of the paintjob is great to and the NMM has come out a treat.

First timer?

Probably would have been better with metallic metallics but the certainly ain't no harm in trying  8)

Great stuff Andy!

As for the NMM, I think the headlights work well. The hubs could probaly benefit from a slightly more blended transition perhaps? And the blue could be just a touch less green, but maybe that's the camera colouring the image.

Still excellent work - I can't get the prisoner them out of my head now.

The canopy finishes it for me; I think you've made an amazing job of it all.

I agree with the comment that the blue in the NMM looks a little aquamarine-ish for the reflected sky (at least on my screen), but that's a minor nitpick on a very nicely done model.
