Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
Ju 290A-4 W.Nr. 110165 was originally assigned to 5 FAGr on long-range reconnaissance flights supporting U-boat operations in the Atlantic. As the Allies pushed into France many 5 FAGr aircraft were transferred to KG 200, the [...]
Although not accurate in outlines, Academy's Mig 21 still makes and attractive looking model given the variety of colorful camouflage schemes that the aircraft adorned in Air Force units throughout the world.
Airfix A11006

The decals are thin and apply easily
Just missing the masks and 2 pilot figurines and it would be 20/20!
