Experiences: - Digital Camouflage is very easy to mask (if you can think “negativeâ€)
- Modern Aircraft-Carriers DONT have wooden flight decks
- If you need quiet five minutes to finish something, you have to shoot your family
- If you print decals with white parts, you should use white decal-foil. Clear ones
didnt work very good
- To get the right stand of an aircraft, you have to sand the tyres
- Cold Burger King-Hamburgers at 5:00 AM taste incredible
