Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
This is my 1/32 Pacific Coast Models Fw 190 Ta 152C with the markings of "CI-XM W.Nr.11007" in the spring of 1945.
This model is build OOB except for Barracudacast main wheels and Quickboost wing guns.
Paints are Gunze acrylics [...]
On October 12, 1964, during its third test flight, its first supersonic, the paint of the XB-70 was torn off in entire patches on nearly 15% of the surface.

Probably, the best kit in the scale. Revell's new tool Shackleton is superior (but not by a large margin) to the Airfix kit. In all, it is not a difficult build and results with a big and impressive model.
I’ve had this one in the stash for awhile and it was an older kit when I got it. That meant the decals were not of much use as they yellowed considerably. So I masked everything on this one.
