Beautiful job!!!   How'd you do the weathering on the gray and especially the white? 

Thank You!

Your build of A-7 is amazing! Especially important is your investigation of the canopy issue- it helped me a lot!

 

I started with "colorful" pre-shading

And after painting in white I used oils and some Tamiya "weathering master"
