@roybent.bsky.social - I finally pulled the trigger - should be here in a day or 2 (I wanted this color), hoping it is same as ones I tried out. Had my heart set on the BB King Lucille model with the Varitone and buckers but the A5 P-90's just sing like nothing l have, pretty stoked here!

D-Day duo: Hawker Typhoon next to a British Sherman Firefly tank, both 1/72 scale. The Typhoon is a BIG aircraft. #DDay80GB
Typhoon aircraft posed next to a Sherman tank on a cutting mat. The aircraft is considerably bigger than the tank.

#DDAY80GB Bit more done on The M4 Sherman. Only handful of parts left to add and deal with, few seams that need to not be seen then time to start prepping those pesky figures. The last step is the stowage and I always enjoy that part.

#DDAY80GB All these builds are looking the work of pros here ! Excellent weathering etc. I am plugging along slowly with way too many interruptions but looks like next week or so is clear to get on the bench. Few parts with paint and some decals on them w/bit o rust just set together here for a pic
