Anthony...is that you ? You've been busy, that's for sure !

You never realize how large of a bird the F-111 is until you see it like that...and after looking at the weapons hanging on your Viking, I think I really need to get me one of them kits !

Looking forward to seeing some more progress......thanks for sharing !

 

[Blacklion213]

thanks for looking, MV-22 has its last extior coat of paint on it ( tan and grey camo)
the AT-4 has its upper surface done... for now its dark grey and dark OD, so they kinda blend to much for me, i might add some tan into the mix, depending on how much is left after i do the -111I and  tuch up the MV-22 i didnt work on the Viking today as im out of white paint ( for the third time and a row ) so i have to go to the store and get some more for it and my winter camo Jag,

still havent decied on what the F/A-20A will be its intened as an interm F-15C/E replacement
