  5. Ok moment of truth, I just received my nose, tank & tail section, I took a few pics at home with the sun shining bright and let me tell you that pics don't do it justice, the deepness of the colours, the reflection of the clear, the fading and that pearl green just pops!

    Unboxing...

  14. Just out of interest, what makes it an "R", other than a paintbrush of course? :)

  16. That's in the green, when the light hits it it pops
