Aires/Quickboost/Aerobonus have released loads of parts for the MiG-23 in the last few months? There's also a lot more Soviet weapons and bomb racks popped up as well from ResKit. 

 

Oh YES Breaker....

Even got confirmation for some FAB-100 bomb from ResKit to go along with their very nice bomb rack that should be available soon....:clap2:

 

Thks,

Dan.

Oh boy it's been a while..... but here my ''MDFT'' (Motivation Dry Fit Teaser)....lol :rofl:

 

Yeap, most of the time that's how you get back on track,

looking at new decal sheet, matching paint colors or looking at other members built...

For me, all the above.

Hope you still remember that one and will put some more soon and have fun.

That was fast but not so convincing for the colors....

 

At first the sand looked ok, but got darker once the brown showed up...

And got worst with the green..... :hmmm:did revised my colors mix for the sand, and end up closer to what it should be.

The camo was done free hand and refine with blu tack sausage......

And instead of using tons of paper towel for over spray, did give a try with a spunge,  

one I tooked from a Reskit box.....

it shorten my masking time by more than half  B)

I found the edge a tad too sharp, will need to double check that before going further..
