Here are some of my latest update shots of this midget tank. Question..what color would I paint the muffler guard? thats the last piece before I flat coat and weather. Comments?
Why not make the whole plane out of the same material the blackbox is made from?

John, I agree with Cliff's suggestion with the muffler guard. So what's left, wash, and dry brushing? Ohh, and the little dude. Can we get a front and rear view?

I would paint the muffler guard the same color as the Tank. Reason being its a Guard and wouldnt be phyiscally touching the hot muffer, thus not tranfering the heat from it which would damage the paint etc. Air makes a pretty good insulator against heat and cold
