Yes, your photo description is clear to me!

That's never a Matchbox kit - it's far too nice!

Believe me it is.

Now sanding on the Phantom is finished, on the Ouragan almost.
Hope the black primer won't show to many bad sections on my F-4.

Nice work. You make it look so easy.
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!"..

First, your response to Stuart was very heartfelt and true! Your mission is to challenge yourself by building 1/72 kits... and one 1/48 scale homage to your very first kit which was originally a gift from your brother... certainly these kits challenge you to come up with novel solutions from creating cockpit components where there basically are none to adapting painting techniques from larger scales to one of the smallest. I recently saw some dioramas built using kits in 1/144 scale... amazing miniaturization using many techniques in sympathy with your own.

Thank you for your explanation of your photography!
Make more models!
