Another final 2015 picture show

[Dizzyfugu]

A bit inspired by leptiprince and the respective F-16 retrospective - I also used the holidays to add some pics from former projects that had been missing for my FlickR galleries: flight scenes of early whifs I built, when I was not so adept with photo editing software...  Since I'v ebeen waiting for decals for a project on the bench, I had some time for photography and some light experiments.

Everything is old stuff, no panic. Enjoy.
