Heres the completed Condor models Foxbat . It seemed to take ages to get finished and im not really happy with the end result , at the last stages it fought me all the way -problems with varnish , washes and all the ancillary parts didnt seem to want to stay attached.Anyways it looks ok ish (a blind man on a fast horse wouldnt tell the difference) and it certainly has presence to it , it was a big, powerful,brutish machine and it makes a decent sized model in 1/72. Heres the pics , as always comments criticisms welcome , cheers tonyDSCN2519 [Desktop Resolution].JPG DSCN2520 [Desktop Resolution].JPG DSCN2522 [Desktop Resolution].JPG DSCN2523 [Desktop Resolution].JPG DSCN2525 [Desktop Resolution].JPG DSCN2526 [Desktop Resolution].JPG DSCN2527 [Desktop Resolution].JPG DSCN2528 [Desktop Resolution].JPG DSCN2529 [Desktop Resolution].JPG DSCN2530 [Desktop Resolution].JPG DSCN2533 [Desktop Resolution].JPG DSCN2539 [Desktop Resolution].JPG

That is a cracker Tony, as I have stated a million times before...and will do in the future...me and aircraft do not get on but, that doesn't stop me from admiring them or really liking a well made model of them...which of course, this is :D

It's a great build well executed. But the Mig25, well Russian designers appear to have a problem with using curves. Maybe they were forbidden during the cold war. :smiling3:

That came out nicely Tony, despite the issues and shallow panel lines. You've achieved a fantastic example of this iconic Cold War aircraft.
