Beautiful models!
The F-16 looks really good despite of the scale!
Spit has a unique-looking colour scheme. How was the Academy kit?
Keep up the good work!

Hi Envar,
Man, that was quick.. Sorry, but I deleted the post at Aircraft, since I felt it would fit in better at the General modelling forum.
Anyways, thanks for the praise !
Yes, the F-16 turned out really well, even tho' it was at such a small scale.
The Spitfire colors are from the box art for the Academy kit.This was done about 5 years back. Also, it is handbrushed, not AB'd! The Academy Kit was great, and all parts fitted properly, as far as I can remember...
We get only Academy, Italeri or few Revell kits here. No Hasegawa, Tamiya etc..!
I took these photos on Saturday, and scanned/manipulated them in Photoshop.
Rgds,

I like that funky cammo scheme on the T72.
What country does it represent?

that cool T-72 might be Iraqi. Was the camo on it airbrushed or hand painted?

Good looking models, bytepilot!
But like MLD, I was wondering what country the T-72 is from, too. I just built mine as a Russian sample (my kit was the Italeri boxing though...).

I like the "fresh from the factory" paint job on the T-72! The Spit's pics 4, 5, & 6 look sharp!
The F16 in brail scale...coooooool! :-)

I love the black and white photo of the Spit. If I can figure out how to work my new digital I'm looking forward to playing with some stuff like that.

Hi All,
Thanks for your feedback ! Really appreciate it...
Well, for all the q's so far, here goes:
Penpen/Eagle : Thanks !
MLD/Bluefalcon : Don't remember offhand the country, but I think it's Russian desert camo. Also, it was hand painted, not AB'd (Surprise, Surprise!!). The decals are also Russian, if I remember right...Will check up tonite, and let you know..
clovis99: I used the Sepia toning Action in PS, and the frames were done using the Photoframe plugin (if that's any help !). If anybody else wants their stuff the same way, send me a scan, and I'll see how I can help.
BTW, I'm a wiz at PS, so anybody can let me know if you want any hi-tech photo alterations to be done...
Rgds,
BP.

:-) Hey bytepilot:
I REALLY like the 4th frame on the Spitfire pictures. I also like to shoot my models outside.
I feel like it gives them a little more realism to the pictures. And to the Models as well. At any rate. Good Job, Keep up the good work. The T-72 Tank looks pretty nice as well.
