I love the precision of that red, and I love how it accents this beauty. I showed the photo to my wife and she said it’s “Sassy.” Which is a high complement. Sexy as Hell with that red on her. Very nice.

Re: KP 1/72 Grob Astir
I agree the masking and the red came out great!
March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall

I also notice that people who don’t model often like very different aspects of our hobby. They don’t want to know how you did the motteling on a 109. They like gliders, a colourful Komet or a diorama.

That is true, Rmemco. Something about red and white. Well, white with just about any bright, solid color. Well done, Sir.

What a delicate looking aircraft! The proportions remind me of my Ta152H build.

After a gloss coat I have putt the decals on.
I used some pictures as reference. I am building PL-74 and it has had some changes in its paint job over the years. But I settled for this one.
