Slavo HazuchaBig show here, literally, I like all 4, should go for the Blackjack, but I think the BUFF clearly steals the show with that exquisite faded camo which looks absolutely in scale, and those deployed flaps 👍.
Also astonished how well the wings connect, obviously there is a line, but would not guess they go apart if I´d just see the thing put together - were they such a good fit OOB or is this a product of tedious fitting and adjusting?
One last point, and I really mean this well - the yellow outlines around the cockpit windows really pop-out on the otherwise perfectly arranged paint-job and surface treatment... I´ve had exactly this moment with my F-111 when I applied the yellow line decals and the thing suddenly went from a scale model to toys´r us item - it´s not nearly that bad here, but IMHO they´d really deserve some de-contrasting... I managed to tame mine with application of brown oil colors - anyway, top job, would not mention this if the rest were not so good, hope you take it as it´s meant, a friendly opinion...

Vince VenezuelaThanks guys for your very kind comments and ideas! The brown oil wash/filter on the yellow windows lines is a pretty good trick, i ll give it a go. Thanks Slavo for the tip 😄 she ll look much better with somewhat less prononced eye liner😉 😛
As for the wings connexion, the fit was quite good oob, and wouldnt require any attention should you glue them in place. But if you go « bomba-in-a-box » then the « male » alignment tabs on the body are too shallow, and the weight of those long, long wings keeps driving them away from it. Simple fix is to prolonge and narrow down the wings' « female » connectors with some card.
Take care and keep up the fun!!
