and this my Classic Airframe kit, started I think 5 years ago maybe more and was very angry about the bad quality, nothing fits and it is very complex to build, the Esci kit has no PE parts, but it work better...no kit will left behind,grrrrr

A couple of nice birds. I like the squigglies on the undersides on the night fighter. Kind of an interesting concept why they did that for a Night Fighter.

Nice motteling Cherrylock. What kind of airbrush did you use?
It is my fear for motteling that keeps me from building the CR.32 that I have in my stash.

Excellent works! The first looks like it may have started a few grass fires in it's day:)

These are strangely attractive birds. Nice job.

thanks friends. If motting is a horror for you, the hungarian airforce has some with sectional camo, early italian have green over gray camo, so every one can paint a Falco, but motting is always nice to see
