I have heard of Bombshell Brew paints and wondered how they are airbrushed. Good to know. I believe they carry some unique colors not found anywhere else.

Yup...they come in a dropper bottle similar to the Vallejo ones and are all thinned and ready to go.

Magnificent work Mike! Your extra effort paid off. These are remarkable little gems.

Very nice! I really like both the Buffalo and Hummer.

I've been wanting to get some of the Bombshell paints. I'd really like to get the WW2 Navy and all the modern colors.

Takom made a big boo-boo on the hub covers for the wheels- the holes provided for the tire valves don't actually line up with the valves when you use the attachment points Takom created...better modelers than I filled the incorrect spot for the hole and then drilled new ones. I am not that person ;) I removed Takom's pegs, and then just glued the covers directly to the hub with the hole aligned correctly ;)

There may be a very slight difference in height- since I basically removed a half mm- but at least you can now see the valve through the hole...although not in the pic I took ;)

I will take another later...

Also started work on Airfix's newer Defiant for an RAF anniversary build....so before I start spraying interior gray green ;)

Is the Defiant 1:48 scale ?

Nice details in it!

Excellent work Mike, and great fix on that Rhino. Your Defiant is looking good as well. That reminds me, I need to pull out my British model for my campaign entry.
