Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
A while back I posted a video of an A-7 dropping A couple of nukes, practice of course. At that time, it was part of their mission, after selecting loft the computer would indicate when to release going vertical at that time to get the [...]
Had some problems with this kit, lost some parts (gun sight), broke some parts (antenna), decals disintegrated on me so I stole a few from a MiG-21 kit so this is a fictitious plane. I didn't want to do a NMF so I free handed the camo for [...]
