    Nice work on the gear, Spiros (@fiveten). Small additions like this really make a great deal of visual difference.

    Nice touches, Spiros @fiveten. Is that the camo plan you’re going to use?
    And What kit arethe Airfix instructions for?

    Thanks my friend @eb801! Yes, I am going for this desert scheme, which, interestingly, was only sported by this single example, field applied!
    The Airfix instructions are for my sons' F-18 "Maverick", this one...

    Nice work on the gear doors, Spiros (@fiveten). Camo will be fun. I had no idea there was only plane with camo. Also looking forward to the F-18.

    Thanks my friends @johnb and @gblair! Indeed, only one plane had this scheme, its topsides only field applied, with only the basic stenciling applied.

    I modified and improved a drop tank from an Italeri kit...

    I have a love/hate relationship with external fuel tanks, Spiros (@fiveten). They really look good on the model, but they are a pain to prep and paint. Nice job on your tanks.

    Nice work on the drop tank.
