I’ve known Mike, or Medicman71 as he’s known in the modeling community, for several years now, have had the pleasure of meeting him in person at the Nationals Meet last year and have seen his modeling subjects in person and can say without a doubt that he is one of the greats in this hobby of ours. His Tamiya 1/48 F-16 with its superbly applied camo scheme and attention to detail is yet one example of many that you will find from Mike here at MSC. It’s a great example of not only his love for later jets but also of his skills as a modeler and makes this one a “thing of beauty” that is truly deserving of its spot at the top of MSC’s home page.

Superb work mate! This is the level of modelling that I one day hope to attain.
