Been a long while since I have posted anywhere other than Facebook (for various reasons). Been working on this one for a short while now and is completed with an Aires Cockpit (with true details resin seat - I never get on with photo etch belts), Astra Decal sheet, Aim-9X's robbed from the Academy F-16I Sufa kit. Paints from MRP (Superb!) and Gunze Aquarius.Really happy with the weathering on this one, applying this to a matt coat and using Mig-Ammo panel line wash, blended in with white spirit certainly did the trick.
Photos were difficult to take; I think the sheer size of the eagle is difficult to represent, however you will see a few photos below showing the overlap of the white paper background. Saying that I do need to revisit the photos and sort out some silvering on some of the decals.
Anyways, enjoy!

Looks great! Panel wash has worked a treat

Yep as I've said that's a beauty! The exhaust finish particularly!

Great stuff James... It looks a lot better on a full screen picture then the smaller ones I saw on my phone! Well done!
