I'll get the ball rolling this month. Didnt get a chance to enter it last month, so here it is.

Tomiansons 1993 Klein Attitude Graffiti.

Full XTR build with some splashes of titanium. Went with understated class components to contrast the fuselage. Graffiti was an original Klein colour back in the day, it was a custom job for a very small selection of frames.

I was thinking I may have something to enter this month is all (and definitely won't for the special as it's a bit too niche for me!)
