They look superb Celtic, the yellow nose rings are spot on!

Excellent whif, Celt and it looks good in South African markings. I'm sold on that one 8-)

I have had a couple of disasters using my usual Humbrol acrylic and have switched to Velljo.To try these paints out I bought an Airfix bf109G-6 in 1/72. Apologies to all Luftwaffe fans out there,the colours are not correct,they were the only ones I had.To make things easier this model was to be built wheels up and perched on a homemade stand.

Overall, I think it went well,the paints were better than expected and doing 1/72 kits wheels up and on a stand means no litte parts for my gammy hand to drop for the carpet monster.

The Stilleto looks good, that colour would have worked well with Japanese markings too. Sorry if I missed it but that BF-109, is that a real scheme or a what if?

A couple of great looking models Celt. Your 109 looks very nice in flight.

Excellent build Celtic, and the scheme works really nicely even if not true to real life.....
Best wishes
