and this my Classic Airframe kit, started I think 5 years ago maybe more and was very angry about the bad quality, nothing fits and it is very complex to build, the Esci kit has no PE parts, but it work better...no kit will left behind,grrrrr

A couple of nice birds. I like the squigglies on the undersides on the night fighter. Kind of an interesting concept why they did that for a Night Fighter.

Nice motteling Cherrylock. What kind of airbrush did you use?
It is my fear for motteling that keeps me from building the CR.32 that I have in my stash.

Excellent works! The first looks like it may have started a few grass fires in it's day:)
So many models.... so little time.

These are strangely attractive birds. Nice job.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

thanks friends. If motting is a horror for you, the hungarian airforce has some with sectional camo, early italian have green over gray camo, so every one can paint a Falco, but motting is always nice to see

Those look great. :dogwag: I think that I need to find one of the ESCI kits for my collection. :hmm:
