I like it, but... I think the printed slopes make it a little too busy. I think
the design would look more cohesive if some of the slopes were Brassoed. For
starters, I’d do one level of slopes on the front end, so the pattern isn’t
repeated with 2 bricks height, and I’d also remove the printing on the inside
leading edge of the wing. If that looks better, it might be worth seeing how
those bare slopes look at your engine exhausts. If the larger expanses of color
help define the shape better, maybe it’s worth it to Brasso almost all of them.
Besides that, the shape looks very fast, and I love your engine details and use
of chrome. The interior looks quite comfortable, and the loading ramp is a nice
touch. The backdrop is excellent, a fantastic improvement over the white sheet!
