There it is, Buccaneer in SAAF, Royal Navy and Gulf War scheme.
I haven't built any of them yet, but i think they should be cool.

Happy modeling. :D

I am preparing some repaints in 1/300 but still need a few touches here and there before posting them here.
Till then, some late builds of Bruno's 1/100 repainted and or just shrunk to 1/300. Except from J-17 which was a 1/300 originally.
The F-4 has an anniversary tail fin for 40 years of F-4 in the Hellenic Air Force (1974-2014). The A-10 has a small repaint of altering jus a little the base color and putting on "What -if" decals for Cyprus Air Force.
Enjoy.

That is one of the beauties of paper modeling, change the scale, change the marking and enjoy!!!
Thank you for sharing

ps: What would be the next surprise by Bruno? a Vautour? an Atlantique? a Neptune? a Be-10? or a minion Dalek? anything is possible!!!

Indeed these are very beautiful. Will you also add EA-6B Prowler?
Can you please tell me how you do your recolors? I am using GIMP, but i feel like it is not the right way.

Hi Matis,

I am not sure about the Prowler...but I wanted to build the A-6 to see how it fits and plan for another repaint...

. This was one of the older Bruno models but I was still amazed at the detail under the relative simplicity of the model for such a difficult plane like the Intruder.
As for re-colors I was introduced to the magic world of Inkscape through this forum and have been using it ever since. Especially for vectored PDF models its wonderful to work with. GIMP I tried a little but was really hard to work with. I remember I used WSPaint for most work and used GIMP to add national signals, writing, etc in different angles....many times just saved these on the file and used WSPaint again for optimal placing...not very happy with Gimp in the end...

Thank you for your reply Stormeagle.

I am looking forward to your new recolors. I will definitely try Inkspace, it looks interesting.

Another Bruno's model in my redraw into 1/72 scale is wainting for approval. It's RQ-4B Global Hawk. Enjoy!
