Your work looks great, Carlos. Spending time painting like this with brushes is an incredible method to stay sharp by using a set of “muscles,” both physical and mental!

Thanks Bruce. But those brush painting muscles are out of practice right now. It’s coming back though.
I’ve started the filling and sanding work now... that’s gonna take awhile...

Yes indeed to both! Not sure the exact load out yet though...

Coming along nicely! Does it feel wired doing something with wings?
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!"..

Re: 1/48 A-7B VA-93
Thanks Lyle. And no, no weird feelings at all doing a wingy thingy... I may not have built as many planes in the past few decades as I used to, but long ago I used to build far more aircraft than armor. I think all my grown up emphasis on things like interior painting, detailing, etc. kinda changed that. Not to mention that most 1/35 armor takes up less shelf space than 1/48 aircraft.
