Okay, this kind of long...so bear with me. https://i.ibb.co/SvChbqc/20200517-213917.jpg These were counter shading prior to applying the top color. https://i.ibb.co/QN06QfX/20200517-213845.jpg https://i.ibb.co/F5fMJKx/20200517-212641.jpg https://i.ibb.co/FgccFtQ/20200517-212823.jpg https://i.ibb.co/...

Re: 1/6 ITEMS

Re: 1/6 ITEMS

Nice work Axis....you have too much detail to take in at one sitting. BRAVO! The helo was a project I did some years ago. I couldn't stand the detail failure 21C did on "Miss Klaud IV"...Vietnam Cayuse helos were Hugh's 500 A models, not D models. They just repainted the Littlebird....FOUL! There's ...

Old Hornet Project Revisited

I started this project nearly 10 years ago when these were pretty new. The idea was to have a Hornet that was not like everyone else's Hornet. Not out-of-the-box versions are what I'm after. I have an F-86F that has been converted to a fighter/bomber variant in SAAF markings, an F-104 Starfighter pi...

Where Have All The Aircraft Mods Gone?

I know the aircraft are in short supply, but there have to be those hidden gems stowed away for a better day to work on! I have just finished one that was in sad shape and stored for 10 years waiting for attention. The subject (and I wish I could show pictures but I have to find a new host to do tha...
