hope i put this in the right place, now i know a lot of us build Plasti-kits (airfix, revell etc...) now a while back i wanted to experiment with schemes before applying them, so i took side photos of my aircraft and started re-drawing them, suffice to say my addiction (is an accurate description of my hobby) became Profile art, i'll show you a key example i did for my uncle... not finished yet but shows shape and form, and shows with camo on on a close up...
