Decal applications look very good, Ruck On!
Not sure how weathered you're thinking, but these rigs got a good beating on entry and I can only imagine the wash rack was mandatory before the next flight, as in, "public presentation clean". But there will always be areas that are semi-rollout clean, and I'm guessing that is the look you are going for.
When we scrubbed the F-15's at the wash rack some stains never came out until the paint barn was scheduled, just the nature of the beast.

There's not many who would attempt something like this let alone bring it to the level you and the crew has. Splendid finish sir; possibly the most noteworthy thing I've ever seen in this hobby

Delivered early this morning to the museum. Mission accomplished!!🎉🎊 Not only is this an excellent show of modeling but it's also a great accomplishment. Through modeling, you've given this museum something for the public to enjoy for years to come. You and your efforts are to be commended Christopher.
