After some time, and quite a lot of 'clonking' around on one model, I managed to finish these two aircraft in May. This first one is the Eduard Profi-pak 1/72 scale Israeli S-199 fighter. I did this one in the markings of the only S-199 to ever shoot down another aircraft. This one is credited with shooting down two Egyptian C-47 makeshift bombers: ![](https://modelersalliance.org/galleries/israeli-s-199-i-jpg.130717/full) ![](https://modelersalliance.org/galleries/israeli-s-199-ii-jpg.130718/full) ![](https://modelersalliance.org/galleries/israeli-s-199-iii-jpg.130719/full) This next one is the 'clonker'. Here is my Trumpeter 1/72 scale Tu-95 Bear bomber finally completed. Painted with Model Master and Humbrols. I apologize for the backgrounds, I did some clone brush to hide the incredible amount of clutter in the original pics. This thing is too big for my background: ![](https://modelersalliance.org/galleries/russian-tu-95-bear-i-jpg.130720/full) ![](https://modelersalliance.org/galleries/russian-tu-95-bear-ii-jpg.130721/full) ![](https://modelersalliance.org/galleries/russian-tu-95-bear-iii-jpg.130722/full) That's all for now, stay tuned for more later.

I like the Bear as well, Mark. What a sidenote for the Mule, the only type it ever shot down was an overloaded and probably tired gooney bird.

I really like your TU-95 Mark. You're making me want to buy/build one!
