More Stuff With Stripes....

I guess the one thing about not having gainful full time employ is more bench time.... Here's some pics of my last few finished, and my latest WiP. Enjoy....

If nothing else Graeme, I've learnt a lot about decalling....

Very impressive! I love the "dynamic" nature of your modelling - it's telling a story. I reckon those fast jet crews in Europe would only say it's too low if they hit something! I once witnessed RAF Harriers scream about at what looked like 150-200' near Bedford - seriously impressive! Any civvie pilot that ventures below 500' in the countryside over there is at serious risk of having a mid-air with a military fast jet! Perhaps it's not quite as bad as it used to be though.

Big tick from me with your work!

Cheers

Very kind words indeed - thanks Adam.
I've just started to venture outside my comfort zone :roll: with how I'm displaying these things - as nice as a static display of Tigers looks, I think bases like these are starting to give them life. It's a whole new set of skills to learn - thanks for the feedback, nice to know it isn't just me that thinks I'm getting it right!! :D :D :D :D

Some really good work there Raptor.
Your tiger schemes along with your display bases make for a really interesting model.
