Nice work! You left out the Prop lines tho, if you look carfully on the tech drawings there are lines for the propellor.

Very nice, but as you said, the colouring is a little off.

I tend to use these colour charts when drawing:

Sometimes you have to guess as to what colour is right, but you can get a pretty good match.

Another time, perhaps add shading and panel lines, to improve it. Wink

Saves using photos that are taken in various light.

it was originally shaded but my free copy of PSP5 was playing up a bit and eventually I settled with this.
