  1. All beauties - I'm especially drawn to the shark mouth - I need to find some 1/72 decals for that a/c!

  2. Great looking pair of storms.

  3. Love them all, Rafi!
    As always, congratulations!

  4. That kit takes some extra work, but if you put it in - as you certainly did - the result is impressive indeed. Great work, Rafi.
