So, I thought the Tu-128 was big....

The "Dear Leader" inspects the tail pipes of his MiG-17s, which have been hurriedly polished.

Done in 1998 I think, using Aeromaster acrylics and my first foray into 'weathering'

I remember being so gratified that I managed to paint yellow 23 on her.

Scratch-built the pitot and added some decals out of the spares-box

love her lines from this angle....

Landed, Kluzov. The end of the Great Patriotic War.

Cockpit left open to access details...( a minor issue with the "45" whilst gently removing kabuki means we have to prete...

welcome aboard....?

It will make for quite a specimen once built. Displaying it will be an art too.

I made this in the mid-90's, brush-painted using Humbrol enamels, (I know the green is now the wrong shade) - but, still...

Pleasant port profile view: another coat of matt varnish and I’m saying Dornier Do-ne!

A joy to make!

sleek and purposeful....if it looks good, it will fly well!

Air Station A-59, (in what became Cormeilles-en-Vexin airport), NW of Paris, winter: Jan 1945.

All ready for the close. It’s difficult to know why Tamiya re-tooled their Mark 1 recently- this tool is superb!

Decals were (a) accurate and (b) correct roundel colours compared to Brengun’s. Xtradecals needed quite a bit of Mr Mark...

stencilled using the excellent "Foxbots".

Castle Archdale, Lough Erne early- to mid-1944. Perhaps after the sinking of U-625.

if I'm honest, I can't remember the interior resin a/market, but it did liven up the interior side walls and seats

Best 190 at this scale. No debate

when I've got a minute, I'll replace the hopelessly out-of-scale wires with Uschi's rigging.

Landed. For myself, a quick build. Hasegawa's 1990s moulds still pass the muster, and this builds into a little fighter...

Cuts a purposeful shape starboard side. I was surprised how many 21’s took US planes out, the ratio of kills higher than...

1984, at University: long, long, ago...in the days before airbrushing, acrylics and 'pre-shading'

Spooky in her position as spider web developer in <<le Studio>>. (She’s too big to put in the cabinets)

Just imagine what could have been, Mr. Healey, (useless bean-counter)

Airfix I

Finals: last shot of varnish, and despite the dusting some small incursions from the spiders in my studio- darn them!!

Pleasure to build, reasonably vice-less

This Squadron attacked targets in Holland, and lost many

All the masks worked well in the end, the tricky bit that required most respray and remask is around the yellow fuselage...

Doing this one: am going to attempt a painted chequer-board/striped nose :-o
