The music to listen to while building these would be Zoviet France or Rapoon.

Thanks everyone.  I got the Idea while playing a very old favorite of mine, Civilization II. I started out as the Turks in the WWII scenario a group that you really aren't supposed to play with --almost no military and no population. I built them up and eventually took over the entire world (starting with Russia to the north, then moving west) Anywho, I decided that Airpower would be my deciding force and B-2s are the most advanced warplanes in the game, so I ended up building lots of them (after they were finally developed) I had a lot of fun and since I was in charge of this new ottoman empire, I could paint my stuff how I wanted and came up with the B-2 after some thought. Red stars after Russia was conquered and green Ottoman markings because in the Game the Turks Colors are a bright green.

As of right now I have successfully relocated to TX. After a lot of debate and thought about what I should bring for my eight week stay and what could wait, I decided to leave all the paint stuff at home and take tools and supplies along with some kits to work on our favorite part of modeling-- tedious sanding and correction!!

Here is a little mock of an F-4/ F-14 that I have been working on and off again for a while and brought with me:


And an F-16 that I didn't bring, but hope to finish when I return:

Su-24 FENCER-G Central Africa, 1994

Here is its "Before picture" I painted it in a Titanium/black Urban motif that I didn't turn out the way I had hoped:



So I redid it, used some new fins from a 1/48 Tomcat (of course!) And had planned to painted it in modern Israeli three tone, but decided I should change the colors and go for a more exotic pattern. If you skip all that stenciling most Soviet Aircraft just have 6 stars and a couple of numbers, I wanted to break out of that habit so I added two more decals!  The Black Panthers you see on the tail there, it forced me to move the star but I like the change, and I think it all "fits"
