Dont forget the Russians might have copied the Ta 183 Huckebein. Which the Mig-15 looks alot like.

Nice Job Frogfoot!

 

Tanky, I think they should put that same anti rpg armor that they have of the strykers on blackhawks.Big Smile [:D]Tongue [:P]

 

I have been working all week for a contest at the end of the month, just to find out the contest was postponed because it was at a Marine base and they just got orders to ship out to Iraq.

I have painted scratches on half of the stug (one side and the front) and I am almost done with the Luchs base. I decided to go with a tall grass field. Its taking longer but I am very happy with the results.

well, seeing as how we still dont have a badge for this GB, I figured Id tinker with it....

 

tell me what you think.  obviously they're a bit large.  if someone can effectively downsize them a bit to fit, thatd be great (paint isnt exactly top of the line pic editing).  otherwise i might have to do it, and i cant say what itll look like but it wont look good.  or if somebody comes up with anything better-looking post it up.  just giving some options for ya....
