Those are very impressive models Rick, especially the Komet which looks much larger than God's Own Scale. Your mottle finishes are something that I would never be able to achieve.

Oh my Rick, those are little beauties! Your mottling work is fantastic, what sort of airbrush set up are you running?

Cheers!

Thanks Brad. As for the Airbrush it is an Iwata eclipse gravity feed Dual Action. Not sure of tip and needle size. It's whatever came in the Starter set  8) The compressor is a standard Hobby type with holding tank ( The Tank doesn't work well). I am also using MRP Acrylic Lacquers and Mr Leveling Thinner when using Tamiya Paints.
