Nacelle done along with general painting of anti glare panel and fuselage prior to masking.

Now done.
Just need to tidy up(that means make it look dirty) and put on decals.

To all intents and purposes I'm calling this finished.
Will post more pictures later.

I used Tamiya smoke weathering for the exhausts. On the panel lines I used a grey Faber Castell pen(thanks Sir T for the this tip) that I ran down them and then once almost dry wiped off with a damp paper towel and for the overall streaking and grime I used Vallejo model wash for dark grey vehicles. Again I brushed it on then lightly wiped over with a damp paper towel.
Glad you like it.

All over white can be a bit bland but your skill in doing the weathering has made it stand out, very impressive.
