Mark Deliduka Posted May 10, 2024 Report Posted May 10, 2024 These were actually finished a little more than a week ago, but you know how Life messes with you. Anyway, here are my latest aircraft finished in May. The first one: 1/72 scale Trumpeter Tu-16 Badger going to my Egyptian Air Force: This one was masked with Silly Putty to achieve that three-tone camouflage pattern. This next one is also the 1/72 scale Trumpeter Tu-16 Badger, this time it is going to my Iraqi Air Force: After the base color was added, I free-handed the splotches using my airbrush. There you have it, my newest models, a brace of Badgers. All comments welcome, thank you to those who looked in to comment. Stay tuned, more to come. 2
ghodges Posted May 10, 2024 Report Posted May 10, 2024 (edited) Badgers? You don't have to show us no Badgers! We don't need to see no stinkin' Badgers! 😁 Sorry.... it was too easy to pass up! Very nice pair duke! I especially like the Egyptian one as it reaffirms that I might have gotten my MiG-21 camo patterns mostly right. Those are impressive in both size and scope of build. Congrats Gil Edited May 10, 2024 by ghodges 1
rdelaney Posted May 11, 2024 Report Posted May 11, 2024 Beautiful work on those Tu-16s. I have that kit in my stash.
Jmarc Posted May 11, 2024 Report Posted May 11, 2024 GGGGGGGGGGreat work ,, now you have more space on your working table !
Mark Deliduka Posted May 13, 2024 Author Report Posted May 13, 2024 Thank you Gil! I knew it was a matter of time before someone said that! LOL! I can always count on you! I'm glad I was able to help you with the Egyptian one. And yes, they certainly were a challenge to maneuver around the Hobby Room and spraybooth. Thank you Bob! I do look forward to seeing yours built. That way I can see what these are supposed to look like! LOL! Thank you Jean-Marc! Not really, as I have a Super G Constellation and a Tu-95 Bear still under construction.
