Nice work. Is it resin and photo etched brass?

That's cool. I like the "ribbed" aluminum effect of the plane/aluminum surface.

Yea, the modelling is pretty cool.
I am a bit unsure about the vegetation in the cockpit, though. It almost looks like the pilot chose a christmas three for his copilot...

Thanks for the comments, I have actually seen wrecked aircraft with vegetation coming up thru the cockpit, due to the belly being torn open.
So I tought a Christmas tree would be Nice ;D
