Maciej Bellos Thank you Clifford!

Łukasz Gliński Oh man, that's simply gorgeous!!! Hard to believe it's not the new AH kit

Bart Goesaert with that I can agree...

Michael Phillips Fantastic work Maciej! That is one striking scheme, and you pulled it off perfectly. Impressive indeed!

Stephan Ryll Very nice result

Ekki Excellent result!

Peter Klin Congratulations for the excellent work!
Your finished model encourages me to take the same kit from my stash and give it a try...

Maciej Bellos Thank you Łukasz! You exaggerate a bit. Up close and personal and you can clearly see the shortcomings of the Mastercraft kit.

Thanks Bart!

Thank you Michael! The whole thing was a test of my skills and I think I passed it!

Thank you Stephan!

Thank you Ekki

Thanks Peter! Do try it! All the info for the problems I encoutered is in this album and ofcourse I will be here for any questions that might arise.

Łukasz Gliński Awesome job, cool subject and nice details on top of it all (I like the exhausts and lamps)

Maciej Bellos Thank you Łukasz for your kind words! The lights are cool, but I think the exhausts are cooler (and were a bit more difficult to do). There is also an antenna made from really thin naylon thread (pic 59).

Łukasz Gliński You are absolutely right, the antenna is impressive, for me in particular. It's so thin I couldn't spot it

Maciej Bellos The antenna went on quite easily. In fact, if it wasn't for my clumsiness while cutting the excess thread that ripped it off, I would have succeeded on the first attempt.

Bart Goesaert Very nice result. Splendid..

Maciej Bellos Thank you Bart!

Patryk S. Great build! Congratulations!

Maciej Bellos Thank you Patryk!

Maciej Bellos Any ideas on which Humbrol red to use for the tricolor?

Łukasz Gliński 14 & 60 ? Or 25 & 60?

Maciej Bellos Didn't think of 60. Thanks! 14 is my pick too for the blue.

Łukasz Gliński Classic numbers, I know them by heart. You're welcome as always

Maciej Bellos Went through my stash. Got Revell's 32152 which might be too blue for a french blue. Humbrol 25 has a hint of purple which could be ok. I'll see if I can get my hands on a tin of Humbrol 14.
As for the reds, I have Humbrol 19 (too red), Humbrol 60 (a faint hint of orange there-kinda matches the overcast photo) and Humbrol 174 (rather dark). I'll make some paint chips to check them all out, or even better I'll paint pieces of paper cut in the shape of the tail.

Łukasz Gliński Consider also the varnish, which usually darkens the colour a bit.

Adam Gudynowski You have Your own Bielik too When are You starting working on it?

Maciej Bellos Thanks Roland! Welcome!

Sorry, Adam, I just saw your question. I will start it soon. I'll keep you posted!

Cuajete Very nice painting job. Congrats!

Andy Ball Super! Super!!

Maciej Bellos Thank you Cuajete and thank you Andy!

Clifford Keesler Beautiful F-15 Maciej, very well done.

Maciej Bellos Thank you Clifford!

Aris aka Amen Turned out do good! Congrats Mathios amaxing Restoration.

Maciej Bellos Thank you Ari! Considering how I had envisioned it when I started the build many many years ago, it is something really different and much better! Praise goes to the TwoBobs decals, ultra thin and of superb quality. Recommended for any project.

Maciej Bellos Thank you Roland!
