    Black paint applied...

    You can also admire my kids' (7 and 5 yo) assembled models (HobbyBoss Easy Assembly) which I hand paint, with the kids going to apply decals. Our town little modeling club organize a contest this March and they are going to participate 🥳

    Good to see you've got two wing men checking your six. Busy hands are happy hands Spiros. They will remember the gift of your time long after they're out of the house. Looks like you've got a black beauty on the stand too. Some real momentum going on here.

    This is shaping up nice, Spiros. That kit still looks good if built with care.

    Havoc looks very good now! It's hard to believe how much putty was needed to present such a fanciful view. A very nice shade of interior green. What brand is it?

    Great progress on the P70, Spiros @fiveten
    I'm pretty sure your kids will present some beautiful gems during your local modelling club contest.

    Interiors in progress, a "life raft" was sort of fabricated from pieces of stretched sprue, to be placed aft of the pilot's seat, will probably look acceptable under the closed canopy...

    Interior and life raft look fine, Spiros @fiveten
