Nice kit, finished with build and main painting, and chipping. Painted the roundels and letter markings, first time making letter masks, turned out ok. Only issues with kit were minor seam issue and the dihedral was a bit off, tape and glue overnight fixed. Other than that the roundel masks I made would not properly sit down over the raised details, but made it work. Made a "rubber" sleeve for the pipe in wheel well and made a couple other wires. Ought to finish this weekend.

Great details, loving your work. Pantherman
 
Here's the finished project, tried the filter technique for the first time, came out better on underside. Also tried to enhance the fabric covered area of plane with buff. Not sure if it's necessary or accurate but it makes the area stand out in a subdued way.

Nice looking beat up weathered bird. I've heard various things both good and bad quirks on Arma kits. I have yet ordered one but1/48 scale is my go-to scale for aircrafts.

Fantastic weathering and detail! I love it!
 
I dont know how you and others are able to do such fine tiny detail but its an amazing talent, very nice.

That first group of pics must have been night fly training in the daytime in the early days it would not surprise me if they did just that and put a bag over the cockpit LOL
