By the way - I had too many "shade" layers active on the nose section - there's a choice of two. One with a shadow for the mooring line and one without. I had both active, so you can see that the nose is darker.

OK, who's gonna pick her up from the paintshop and fly her down the left coast and across the puddle? She's parked in KSFO right now...

I still haven't corresponded more with the Cat Club peeps, so a little patience is still needed - I do want them to have first shout - fair do?

Oh... I took a "small" liberty - do you think they'll mind much winkyy.gif
