Has it really been this long?!!!

Life seems to get in the way of all that is fun....along with a bit of a drought in the motivation department.
I'm back in the groove and building away!

As already witnessed...2 of the 6 are done. The other "G" was all assembled, except for the canopy. For the other 3, had to do the pits, rivets, and slap em all together...and off to the paint booth!

Here we are....

Jeremy I'm thrilled to see you back! These are looking magnificent as expected. I can't wait to see these all done.

Beautiful! I love the fidelity of the painting... it appears to be very "scale appropriate" which is difficult to do on a 1/72 mottle scheme.

I never tried doing this in 1/72 but I can imagine it's not easy.

It is quite hard to do, and I'm not close to 100% satisfied with it...I might give it a C, maybe a C+.
Every once in a while, I'll got a few "spots" about as perfect as can be...then PBLBLBTTHHH :headbang:
My hand still hurts!

Welcome to my world. I still hurt from the free-hand camo painting I did with my Sotar 20/20 on my latest trucks and vehicles!

Still, your camouflage is impeccable. Way to go Jeremy!
