These were actually finished a little more than a week ago, but you know how Life messes with you.

Anyway, here are my latest aircraft finished in May. The first one: 1/72 scale Trumpeter Tu-16 Badger going to my Egyptian Air Force:

This one was masked with Silly Putty to achieve that three-tone camouflage pattern.

This next one is also the 1/72 scale Trumpeter Tu-16 Badger, this time it is going to my Iraqi Air Force:

After the base color was added, I free-handed the splotches using my airbrush.



There you have it, my newest models, a brace of Badgers.

All comments welcome, thank you to those who looked in to comment. Stay tuned, more to come.
