That is down right awesome. I've never tried anything like that before. I have some questions if you don't mind me asking.

1) How did you weather it?

2) How did you separate the landing gear from the wings? 

3) How did you do the LEDS in the tail engine and where did you buy them from. here is the on / off switch and where to the batteries go?

BTW, Timbit given for that awesome work.

For the paint job, I primed the plane, then a coat of grey/beige and wet brushing and wiping

For the landing gear mod and the LED in the engine check this thread http://serpentorslair.info/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=2711 from Vidmous on Serpentor's Lair. I did the same mods and found the same lights at my local dollar store.

and thanks
