Back to my old hobby after more than 20 years… learning airbrushing and weathering techniques. Spent most of my life as an aircraft enthusiast and part of it as an aircraft professional. Favorite “targets” are WW2 and “cold war” jet fighters and lately, combat helicopters. The primary goal is to have fun. Hope you’ll enjoy it 🙂 

Fishbed: NATO reporting name* for MiG-21 a supersonic jet fighter and interceptor aircraft, designed by the Mikoyan-Gurevich Design Bureau in the Soviet Union

* NATO uses a system of code names, called reporting names, to denote military aircraft and other equipment used by the post-Soviet states, former Warsaw Pact countries, China, and other countries.
