If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing

Very good work on the face. What did you use to paint the catsuit, very shiny? II had thought you might get some Zero paint mixed up to as the original was sparklely rather than glossy, or is it ..erhm, artist license

Thanks, all...
@james -- that's the photo I was working from!. The catsuit is actually Tamiya "Metallic Black", which I thought would come up sparklier than it has in the photos. Usually you find that photos exaggerate the flakes in metallic colours, but not this time!
Still trying to decide whether to apply the mask...

Is the mask a separate part, or just up to you to paint? If the latter you could make one from foil, then at least you could see what she looks like with it.

Great work Matt. An outstanding bit of painting.
And I bet it was hard work hand polishing that suit
