Those look fantastic and it's great that you found time to work on these. The bright side to mandatory OT is that there's more money for models.... and other fun stuff!
Keep 'em coming Owl!

Have read that Airfix´s new Defiant should be a rather good kit. Oh, I only wished the pictures wouldn´t be this blurry. Hard to see any details.

Very glad to see you back at it again! I can't wait to see the finished product! I could never manage a hand brushed paint job very well, kodos to you for the nice one here!
