Love me a Jug with some checks on its nose. Looking forward to seeing more progress. Cheers! -O

I like that. It's sharp! I have the Hasegawa -64D in 1/48 that is calling me from the stash. Yours provides some nice inspiration! -O

Howdy ARCers, I present to you my 2nd completion of 2023 and my first of 2 OH-6s that I'm building for my 2023 theme of "Pairs". I've always wanted to build a 20th SOS UH-1N, but I have been intimidated by the Leopard camo scheme I want to do. I always thought the scheme was beyond my airbrushing skill. So, I figured this little build would be good practice to see if I can pull it off before I tried it on the Huey. I have to say, I'm rather pleased with the way it turned out. This is Academy's MH-6 "Stealth Helicopter" boxing built up as a 20th SOS WIF. I swapped the s

First of all, thanks for looking. I appreciate your compliments, ARC. For the clear coat(s), I used Tamiya X-22 pre- and post-decals, then sealed everything with a final coat of Testors Dullcote lacquer. Hope this helps! Cheers, -O

Hey ARC, my title says it all. I'm looking for a complete set of exhausts for Monogram's 1/48 AV-8A. I'm looking for parts 38 (x2), 39 (x2), 40 (x2) and 41 (x2). If you have a junk kit or a set in your spares, I'm interested in taking them off of your hands. Please message me if you have a set to spare and let me know what you're asking for them. Thanks, -O(mar) Note: I'm posting in Jet Modeling and Buy and Sell, too.

Greetings ARC! This is my first completion for 2023. This kit was a blast! If you do not have this kit, get one. If you do have it, build it. If you've built it, build another! Mine was a bagged kit that I picked up at a swap meet. It included a set of resin wheels, but I didn't use them. Everything is OOB except for the markings. They're a mix of spares, kit and Eagle Strike decals. Paint is Alclad for the NMF. Everything else is MM, Testors "little square enamels", and AK Real Color lacquers. My references showed that these airframes were kept pretty clean, so the little weatheri

I really like the look of that gray one, but all three are sharp. Nice work! -O

Wow! Quantity and quality. Nice work! -O

That Mohawk is sharp!

Phantom, your days are obviously longer than 24 hours each. How do you find the time? Great stuff! -O
