nito74 , be careful with that primer from Vallejo. It is a tad hot or aggresive and can damage the surface of the plastic. I only use that on armoured vehicles, resin figures, resin kits but never on aircraft. I used it once on my Kfir and the surface turned to a shark skin look. ![](https://i.ibb.co/wYQbp02/RSCN0875.jpg)

Thank you Tommy! Thank you John! That does look good in red, but I have a few red subjects already so I'm looking to make this a different color. I don't like the pea green color on the box top either, I'm going to go with a more deep, forest green over the brown fenders instead. Testor's square bottle paints has a 'beret green' color that I love; that is most likely the color I will use. I hope I can get it smooth. I'm also looking forward to getting into that as well.
Thank you Ian! It does look good doesn't it?

Nice goodies for your bench, John!!!! Thanks Ian !! I will be using them for sure, but what I'm really happy is that I was in a store full of plastic kits and didn't buy a single one

I'm aiming this year to buy no kits as I have about 40 in the loft, If I get anything it'll be like Johns purchasing, bits and pieces

After all my recent half price purchases, I doubt I will be getting anything else any time soon, either.

I do like the look of those STALKER style figures Tommy. If only my figure painting skills (and my eyes) were up to the task.
