Just finished this Revell kit for my son.
Me: Son, which decals should we use?
Son: Yes!

@Troll Itâs a plastic model of the attack helicopter and it doesnât look that big to me, perhaps 1:72?
sorry I just had to
EDIT: I guess this wasnât as good a joke as I thought it would be, interpeting âthat big tigerâ as referring to the helicopter itselfâŠ
@Ugene incredibly well built, must have taken quite some effort and a steady hand!

And another one down. Tamiya Ki-61 in 1/72. First time experimenting with chipping medium and it went pretty bad in some places, chipping off the base color and primer. Brush touchups wouldnât level with the smooth airbrushed sections.

Looks nice; great job on that antenna! Iâve tried aerials in 1/72 before but found them problematic, to say the least.
What did you use?

I used âinvisibleâ thread, then painted it a gray-black to make it pop a little more.

Wow, Iâm really tired this morning. My brain read your statement as âI used girlâs back hairâŠâ

I never was good but when I tried making models in the past, I used plastic from the sprue held above a candle flame (like a good inch above) and slowly pulled apart to make a thin wire.
Like so:
