One really fast bugger and one with a whirly bit on top. I just got one of each for me and few more each for the store, I’ll see if I like them and then most likely get some more for me.
A few new goodies

Making Progress
Making some progress on the Su-27. It looks like I may be able to save this horrible piece.
I Love GHQ
Have I mentioned lately how much I love GHQ miniatures? They would have never released a model that was this far off the mark.
I’m working on trying to save this Su-27 Flanker from I-94 Enterprises and I’m not sure it’s worth all the work. I’ve shaved off that horrible strange tumor that was growing on the underside of the nose. Now I’m adding Green Stuff to re-sculpt the canopy and the radome so they look at least a little bit like the Su-27. I’m going to try to see this project through to the end … but It’s really not feeling like it will be worth all the effort.
Here is what it looked like when it had the cancerous growth on this chin

Question about Su-27
Does anyone know if there is a version of the Su-27 that has this huge “tumor” like growth on it’s chin? This really does not look right to me … but maybe it is?
I’m planning on carving this off to make it look more correct.
New Aircraft Models
I just picked up a few new models from Armaments In Miniature. I got an IL-76, a C-130 and a pair of C-17s. These planes will be very handy when I get my airport boards done.
I have not had much time to work on these planes but I can tell already that they are fine models. I’m very happy with their quality and the customer service from the owner Dave was great. In my own business I try to make customer service my #1 priority and I really appreciate it when I deal with a company that does the same.
Here it is assembled. I added some landing gear since the plane will be sitting in my airport.
Just some new Micro Armor I’m working on
TOS-1 Buratinos
A few Ratel 20s on the left and some RG-31 Nyalas on the right. The Nyalas look a lot like Cougars or M-ATVs
