Here's my 1/72 Bulldog in Spanish Republican colours. It's nearly there but not 100% finished. This was going to a wargaming piece but I lost my mind somewhere along the way and added way too much detail.
There is a little more info and a couple more photos on my blog:

Yeah, that's way too pretty to risk on a flight stand. Top-notch! Ron |

Thanks guys! Tim, the rigging is made from thin copper wire straightened by rolling it under a metal ruler. I have a good selection of copper wire that I bust out of old electrican equipment. The prop is painted with Vallejo acrylics, a sandy base followed by slopping over a reddy-brown. Then I streak over a a thin dry brush soaking up portions of the red brown while it's still wet. After that I might touch it up a bit and darken some of the red brown with thin lines. -Kosta |

Very nice work! I've always liked the striking colours of the Republican aircraft. |
