Hi all,
Here is one of my recent finishes - the Airfix/Heller 1/72 Dassult Super Etendard. It's an old kit with meh fit but I really enjoyed it. It's hand painted with a no.4 round tipped brush and very thinned Humbrol enamels.
I've tried to take some decent shots of this one and appreciate some feedback on the pictures. They were taken in natural light using my old Canon EOS 350D and my ef50mm f/1.8, and using a tripod and remote release. The ISO was 100 and the camera set using manual to f/20 and about a third of a second.
I have noticed the Specs - I wonder if I have dust on my sensor.
Cheers
Stuart

That sure is purty. Well done, Stuart.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Sharp looking model there Portman! Well done; the painting almost looks airbrushed. Most impressive!

We are modelers - the same in spirit, in hunger to insanely buy newly released kits, hustlers in hiding our stash from our better halves and experts in using garbage as replacements for after-market parts.
