The 1/48 Portuguese SAR Merlin is ✨finally ✨ starting to come together and actually look the part. Outside of the folded chairs, the cabin bits were all 3d printed. I'm still sorting out the rescue basket.

Circling back to a method I tried out a number of years ago to make the F-4 upper curtain ejection handles from twisted black & yellow threads. I will do up a nail jig to form up the circles after the thread glue dries. Seatbelts still need paint work as well🤞🏻 #ModelAircraft #HistScaleModels

This Weekend in The Hangar: As a "tip of the hat" to the current Italian Group Build, we take a look back at my Italian era with several types featured 5-10 years back, like this smokin' C.205 Veltro #HistScaleModels #ModelAircraft #FinishedKits www.flypastrush.com/post/smoking...

My Ukraine 🇺🇦 Su-25 Rook project makes some more progress today with the decals on side & top. #HistScaleModels #ModelAircraft

I now have the gloss coat applied on my Ukraine 🇺🇦 Su-25 Rook. Next it will dry for a few days before moving on to the decal & panel wash stages 😎 #HistScaleModels #ModelAircraft

This Weekend in The Hangar: The Debut of my 1st Ukraine AF type. This MiG-29UB is in a paint scheme less often seen, but still a stand-out IMHO. Be sure to check it out:

Managed to get all the base layers of paint applied on my Su-25 Rook. Some repairs still required but now I can see how the wraparound Splinter camouflage turned out 👀 Hope you had a good weekend 👋🏻 #HistScaleModels #ModelAircraft

Managed to get through the main paint job on this “What-If” Phantom II. Some repairs required but now I can see how the wraparound camouflage turned out at least 👀 Hope you had a good weekend 👋🏻 #HistScaleModels #ModelAircraft

Sprayed the second Dark Green tone onto my Phantom II. I will switch to the fine tip next shot to add a bit of weathering. Then we can see how the wraparound camouflage turned out 👀 #HistScaleModels #ModelAircraft

More paint work on my Ukraine Su-25. Got it masked off to spray the final camouflage Forest Green. I will switch to the fine tip next shot and give it a bit of weathering. Then a few final colours on odd panels . #HistScaleModels #ModelAircraft

Also up for some paint work tonight is my Su-25. Got the Sand colour masked off. Sprayed the second colour tone of Dark Green. The second shot of green evened the colour off some. Next I will switch to the fine tip and give it a bit of weathering. #HistScaleModels #ModelAircraft

Got the Charcoal Gray masked off. Sprayed the second colour tone onto my Phantom tonight. The second shot of green evened off the colour. Next I will switch to the fine tip and give it a bit of weathering. #HistScaleModels #ModelAircraft

Also made progress on my 🇷🇼 Su-25 Rook the other day with a shot of Sand tone to start its camouflage paint job. #HistScaleModels #ModelAircraft

Worked on the first colour tone of my Phinal Phantom of the year. In the first set the paint process was giving me all kinds of problems, so I halted that mess. Cleaned up the damage and went back over with a new mix. Now we got somethingto work with #HistScaleModels #ModelAircraft

This Weekend in The Hangar: Rolled in a NEW Phantom, much to the thrill of The Crew. Quite a bit different looking with a great Luftwaffe scheme from JG74. Be sure to check it out:
