Spectacular Steve. Shame that it’s hidden away. It deserves to be on constant display. I’m not a tattoo fan but if I got to fly such cool airplanes I’d probably have that tattooed on my forehead.

Beautiful work and such a talent. Just an aside, is it possible to use an airbrush to touch up those annoying little chips and scraps we get from day to day use and maintenance?
