    [Pictures] New to modelling - my first five projects

    5th: Zvezda Mi-24V 1:48 - pretty much WIP.
    4th: Eduard F-5E 1:48 - NW undercarriage door still drying, CAP-9 is missing, otherwise complete.
    1st: Hobby 2000 Mig-29UB 1:48 - Complete. It was an early project, the first airbrush painted. I'm aware of the large gaps, the canopy didn't fit properly.
    2nd: Trumpeter Mig-21UM 1:48 (or UszM) - Complete, the decals will be fixed, an it will get another layer of varnish. Eventually.
    3rd: ICM B-26K Counter Invader "Special Kay" 1:48 - Antenna wire missing, otherwise complete. The chipping is too much, i'll fix it someday.
    +1 (No pictures): Trumpeter Mig-23MF 1:48 - Was only a hand painted test build.

            Nice work on the engine details of the Hind and B-26
            And I'm always pleased to see Migs. Are they based on 1/1 scale examples?

            Oh, and welcome in

              Hi Matt and welcome.
              Strength isn't about what you can do, rather it's about overcoming what you thought you couldn't do.

                            Thank you! Yes, the Mig-29UB was based an ex-operational Fulcrum, that was in service till the eary 2010's with the exact same paintjob.

                              The very first was a 1:48 Mig-23MF, but that was only a "test-build". So basically these are my first 6 builds ever.
