I've been unable to locate the gas tank part. Thank you! GeneralFROSTY said: OK, lots of new pictures here to share. Basically, I've just been focusing on finishing the engines first, though I did manage to sand down the mold seams on the shell. I got to break in my new airbrush - works like a charm. I did a layered paint job - starting with the satin black, I highlighted areas with copper and silver, then went over everything with gunmetal to blend it all. I am happy with how it came out. Next week I will hopefully have time to start working on the engine flaps. Once those are done, I can start prepping the shell and radiator vent for paint! http://i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc506/jimmy2step/Jetpack/DSC_0338.jpg http://i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc506/jimmy2step/Jetpack/DSC_0341.jpg http://i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc506/jimmy2step/Jetpack/DSC_0340.jpg http://i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc506/jimmy2step/Jetpack/DSC_0336.jpg http://i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc506/jimmy2step/Jetpack/DSC_0337.jpg http://i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc506/jimmy2step/Jetpack/DSC_0334.jpg http://i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc506/jimmy2step/Jetpack/DSC_0344.jpg http://i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc506/jimmy2step/Jetpack/DSC_0347.jpg http://i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc506/jimmy2step/Jetpack/DSC_0348.jpg http://i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc506/jimmy2step/Jetpack/DSC_0349.jpg Click to expand...
