A little CGI trickery... nice!

I do love the CGI additions. Way to go! Your models look fantastic already, daddy's additional work really makes them pop even more!

I think many of us here try to go the extra step to cheer one another on. Since the active members here are a comparatively small group, and because elsewhere we have posted and received no response at all to our work. Yes, we are looking, and we will let you know that we are...

Even if it is just a :that:


But seriously, we are on this forum to communicate. That is the whole point.

Very well done!

I wanted to add a cheer as well; the stand and mount are simple and strong—elements matching the character of the model. I dig the aesthetic choices. And your modeling work is inspiring. I don't normally do emojis but I am tempted to try one here...

Thanks again.

Some weeks ago I pottered around at home. There I noticed some leftovers of laminate floor with an interesting surface structure.
Could those leftovers be a display? So I tried it and I really was surprised about the look.

Thanks. And this is another current work: I got a Matchbox F-5 on Ebay but with a missing canopy. Then I found one from a MiG-21 by Hobbymaster which looked like a match. So I decided to to a MiG-28 from Top Gun movie. It will be modified to make it more looking like a russian aircraft. A made is going to provide some russian weapons. Let's see where that journey goes to...
