Love 'em all, the weathering in the Frisky Mk.5 is especially nice.  :)

They're all outstanding but I really like that Irish I-16!

Who knew the I in I-16 stood for Irish?

Great stuff, Radish!

The Frisky is the result of Red Car Primer, washes with various diluted Games Workshop reds and a silver pencil.

Some inspiration now from the Irish Squadron Il2 website Forum....

Monoplane Gladiator with "skis" for the soft bogs of Ireland!



What's with that DESERT-camo Irish Air Force fighter a few posts back??

An Irish "desert" is somewhere where it rains only 355 days a year!
My mind is like a compost heap--fertile AND rotten!
