    Rapidly approaching the finish line, a few major decals added to get the positions right - [ATTACH]314738[/ATTACH][ATTACH]314739[/ATTACH]

    The canopies are still loose, so I can give a satin overspray to seal the decals. I'm not sure about how much weathering to go for - the majority of photos show pristine examples, or really sad looking museum exhibits!

      Nice paint job Dave, think the weathering is ok for a high speed recon plane.:thumb2:

          As I approach a finish on this monster, I've decided on my next build, for the Forum GB: Wheeled Military Lorry[ATTACH]314899[/ATTACH]
          I've made a fair few of the ICM trucks, and enjoyed them. They're not 'shake the box' builds, and can be quite challenging.
          Construction will start on completion of the Foxbat

            Undercarriage and wheels finally added.............................[ATTACH]314957[/ATTACH][ATTACH]314956[/ATTACH]
            The reason for the Mig-25 RBT - camera ports in the nose ( awaiting clear parts ) The grey panels were made by painting clear decal sheet, rather than trying to hand paint/mask

            [ATTACH]314955[/ATTACH]
            Undercarriage doors to add ( & those camera ports ) before a final coat of satin varnish. There are still a number of aerials & sensors to add - very fragile!
