<...> the finnish is 1:72 (Hobby Boss).

Whoa! That would have been an awesome job in 1/48, but in 1/72 that's just breath-takingly spectacular!  :bow:

Rats!
Thats another idea I can cross off the list now  :banghead:<...>

;D Exactly. But you could always go for the other camoes the French used/use. F-105 in Djibouti camo?  :wub:

Cheers,

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

That first snowman picture was obviously inspired by this Dan Piraro cartoon:

Quote from: Cliffy B on March 27, 2010, 12:22:58 PMI'm really liking the color combo and am interested if that's based on a real scheme or completely dreamed up.

I think it's a mix of that David Aungst' scheme...

and "arctic" F-16 for the colors...

Oh those are superb! A Russian F-16, but in WWII markings?  :wub: :wub:

That 190/Corsair! Doh!! Had that idea for a while, (probably not the first by a long shot though) Have yet to actually build it though! Sure does look good, brilliant job  :thumbsup:
