The first image is in fact my photo manipulation.  It's not so hard to imagine this scene in typical "English" weather.

This F-15E kit is one of the best kits I've ever encountered. Amazing fit almost without the use of putty and many parts with amazing detailing. Superb kit!!

I used the LMresin (www.lmresin.com) ACES II seats in this model. The original seats were not so bad, but resin seats have more details. I did not use any other resin or photoetched detail sets because the kit does not require any additional detailing on the airframe.

MM Gunship Gray with a little White and Neutral Gray added, and my Badger 200 has been used to paint the model.  The decals are from the kit with a little modifications.  I did not like the original Tigermeet scheme that was in the kit. Weapons are from the Hasegawa Weapons set, and ground crew are from various kits and sets.

Greetings from Croatia
