Thanks for your comments dM and SB.

You've got a good eye, dM. That was supposed to be Bruce. :D

:lol: Eye-schmeye. It's uncannily accurate down to the unused visor snaps on his helmet.

Not to mention the rivets and stress fractures on the plexi-glass and exacting placement of the decals.

It's almost as if your digital painting would have been the next image taken by the photographer who took this photo...

After seeing your design and then the "vintage" shots dm found, I'm more impressed with this one than any of the prior ones you've posted. Excellent detail.

I've always been curious why you haven't conjured up a suitable avatar.

Yes there is SB. I'll post in a new thread.

Sorry SB the forum isn't letting me link to Photobucket at the moment. I'll try again tomorrow.

Actually Gray, you may have missed it, but since you last posted here, the rules have changed somewhat for posting links and signatures
