Sweet build, Gary. I have always liked the Oke, you've done a super jobb.

Nice work Gary, I really like your SCC2, did you do a lot of fading? When I tried that mix, it seemed much darker, I'm not sure if I got it right.

Beautiful build Gary! Just the right amount of weathering and -thankfully- a minimum (any?) rust. Looking forward to seeing more!
