looking good so far - what kind of load out do you have planned for her?

Armament depends a little on what backstory you're using - if they're supposed to be ex-Israeli Netz fighters, Python III missiles on the wingtips wouldn't be all that silly, and you could probably get away with loading Paveways on it.

On the other hand, Uganda has MiG's and Sukhioi's at the  moment, which means they've got the Russian's favorite export weapons laying around - whixh means Aphid missiles on the wingtips, for example, and likely their dumb bombs as well.

Then there's "commercially available" ordnance like FN's HMP pods - you can find a pair of them in Revell's A-109KM kit. Actually, Vietnam-era 'winders and gunpods could be a cool option.

Just my 2 centicreds...

I think you really messed it up with that paintjob, B777LR.

Just kidding! Love those colors you chose on the bottom one. It seems you've got a real knack for camo! Nice work!

P.S. I like your MiGs, too.

No airbrush here either Zac. I brush-paint exclusively. Usually that's the most enjoyable part of the build for me. B777LR, good to have another brush-painter aboard!

I'm just waiting until you guys get an airbrush setup, and go "Oh, that's what they meant !"
  LOL.

   Nice work on those jets, and they are right, you have an eye for camo !
