Beautiful work Peter! Love the paintwork and light weathering. I have this kit as well and look forward to building this subject too one of these days.

Very nice work, I really like the camo edges - not too smooth nor sharp, certainly not easy to accomplish. Weathering is also on point 👍, but the heat marks on the engine panels may be not so subtle anymore in my opinion (though I couldn't find any good picures of the Ra'am from below, perhaps you have better references).

Thank you guys. Alexander, actually I somehow find free hand camo much easier than dealing with masks, not good with them. About heat marks I also didn't find good pics, sow several different colours, so I decided to make something on the middle, maybe not too realistic, but looks nice in my opinion 🙂

Thank you, Jos and Spanjaard. My regular client like slightly weathered models, so for him I pushing on weathering breaks. For my own builds I'm going full force 🙂

Nice! Looks very realistic! 👍 The age old saying: 'Less is more'

Thank you, Patrick. Hehe, yeah, especially with weathering you need to know where to stop😉

Fantastic work! "Less is more" doesn't apply for the ordnance, looks like this eagle is ready for war 👍 To lower the intakes is a good idea, makes it even more interesting. Nice!

Thank you, Daniel! About intakes I liked it two, bat later I was pointed by people who works with this plane, that lowered intakes means that engines are working, so pilots must be inside🙂

Love this stuff! GWH Raam is definitely on my shopping list, especially after the Su-35 experience...

You got a superb finish on this one - Israeli machines can be dissapointingly clean 🙁 - this one has some great "action" on going on on the surfaces, but looks believable... Great "Dry climate" warbird 👍

Thank you, Scalemates! Will do😉
