Tamiya 240ZG in 1/24th scale. The body is airbrushed Wolf Blue TS lacquer paint with no clear. It's built straight out of the box with the omission of the fender flares. I used it to illustrate three how-to articles for FSM Magazine.

Great build, as always. I appreciate your techniques, and especially your weathering that has much restraint as anything else, which is rare and really makes it look right.
