  1. That is incredible! Taking scale modelling into the realms of a true art form! Truly amazing. ๐Ÿ˜ณ ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
  2. Excellent! The weathering is superb! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
  3. Awesome! I only flew once in a 747 (QANTAS Sydney to LA). Well, twice, including the return flight. ๐Ÿ˜œ However, the QANTAS Museum in Longreach Australia has a well-preserved specimen (although retired from flight duties). Itโ€™s wonderful to tour through her and appreciate this most iconic of airliners. Beautiful model! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
  4. Brilliant! I didnโ€™t know of this planeโ€™s existence until a friend showed me his (unbuilt) kit about a decade ago. Your build is very impressive, especially knowing how old the tooling is. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
  5. Very nice! Glad you got it to the finish, in spite of a few dramas. To me, this looks like one of the USAโ€™s most beautiful military jets, but it doesnโ€™t seem to have been in service as long as other (less good looking) types. Anyway, fantastic build! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
  6. I like that! In the last months of the Pacific War, the Japanese struggled just to keep planes in the air. Hence, their physical appearance was low on the list of priorities. Your build shows the wear & tear to good effect. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
  7. Fantastic! You say it's not that great a kit? Well, it is not at all evident by the result. Clearly you have the skills and perseverance to knock it into shape. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
  8. Wow! Good thing you took all those in-progress photos, because the interior detail would be hard to see in the finished product. The exterior looks awesome too! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ Your work will serve as inspiration when I decide to start on my Hasegawa kit.
  9. Very nice indeed. An aggressive-looking and subtly weathered Hurricane. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
  10. Nicely done! Captures the rather sinister look perfectly! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
  11. Looks great! You did an excellent job! ๐Ÿ™‚
  12. I like that too! This "mottling" technique is a new level in realism (IMHO) and I need to try it sometime. @dragan_mig31, any hints about how it's done?
  13. Mate! That's an awesome group of builds! I too find the Hellcat the most inspiring - my Eduard 1/72 kit is calling to me from the stash! ๐Ÿ˜ฌ
  14. I've built a lot more planes than I have AFV's - in fact, no AFV's since I was a kid. Yet I have to admit I'd be well pleased if I could turn out an FW-190 as nice as yours. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
  15. There's nothing like an air racer to brighten things up. This looks so cool! The exhaust stain is very impressive. I don't have a steady enough hand to do that with an airbrush (not freehand anyway). Well done! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
  16. Great work! Quite a nice-looking plane (IMO) and you turned out an equally nice-looking model! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
  17. That's a gem! Beautifully done! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
  18. That is great! I love your approach to camouflage, using paper cut-outs! Very inspiring. Thanks for posting this. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
  19. Incredible! I rarely see such an uncompromising approach to detail and accuracy in 1/72 (and I am definitely not in that class, I can assure you). Even if the real aircraft could be shrunk to this scale, I think your build would still win the contest! Such close-up photography would be most unkind to my work; proving that your precision is next level! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
  20. Great job! I like the look of the Canadair, although I've never seen one in the flesh. The slightly weathered finish on your build makes it look so realistic. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ BTW, that close-up photo is brilliant - so evocative!
  21. Astounding! I see builds of this quality quite often coming from Eastern Europe - must be something in the air. ๐Ÿค” Absolutely beautiful! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
  22. Hard to believe that's 1/72! Amazing detail and fine skills! Impressive! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
