any critic welcome.
 
Well done. I think the paint finish was flat, instead of shiny, though.
 
Seriously shiny... I did one a while back, and made it matt - examples attached. Overall shape looks good, but as it's quite a simple shape, the texturing becomes more important.

OK nice, but I agree with aemann it's too shiny.

Take a look to an aircraft in midair, you can notice that it is always dark against the bright of the sky (even in the cloudest day).

That was the main reason for the YEHUDI project carried on by US NAVY during the WWII, they tried to reduce aircraft visibility making them as bright as the background sky.
 
It's not just the shiny aspect that poses a problem. I think the colors that lippischh uses on his work in general are not realistic.
