Trumpeter 1/48 Mig-23ML Flogger G
The Syrian Air Force had several variants of the Flogger in service. Conveniently I chose The Mig-23ML model of which one landed in Israel and was well photographed.

Trumpeter, 1/72, F-100D Super Sabre
Hi everyone,

Trumpeter 1/48 F-100F Super Sabre
A nice and easy to build model. The highlight of the model is the engine exhaust area with the colorful burnt metal patterns. No fancy metallizers there, just a touch of diluted colors over darkened silver paint.
HMS Hood - May 1941

I needed a break from a number of more involved projects I was working on, so I decided to slap some paint on something I had never built before: a 1/3 scale firearm, in this case the Mk.18 Mod 0 CQBR by Trumpeter.
Quick and fun build, fun [...]
