  4. Amazing craftsmanship & photography...where have you been lately? You show us all what can REALLY be done with a plastic kit.

  5. Really beautiful photography, and the models aren't bad either...

  6. Very cool!

    Whose kits and at what scale? Might have to add one of these to the build list.

  7. Hi

    Many thanks guys for your kindly comments.

    The scale is 1/72 and my father used the old frog kits with a lot of improvments (new canopies, wheels, etc, etc)

    Kind regards
    Santiago
