Finally finished Per!!! Certainly this big guy is a great addition to your Forca Aerea Brazileira aircraft collection. I continue to envy the way you install the antennas, which certainly gives more dimensionality and realism to the model. My Hercules is further behind but remember that I am building 3 big FAMs simultaneously.
Let's continue reaping successes and I don't know what the next ones you'll create will be.
Greetings, José Antonio Rodriguez aka Tigertony100.

Looks great Pér!
Your success on this FAB Herc has inspired me to do a repaint of an RAAF version.

Great job on this Hercules.

Back in the day, I flew in these a few times . . . and landed in one once.

Thanks Siwi!

For me, one of the essences of modeling is always trying to overcome yourself, it's an inner journey. Since learning this I've had more fun, although for some the challenge is always a question of ego. In the end I was happy and even happier to see that you enjoyed overcoming the initial mistakes.

Thank you my friend! I'm sure that your FAM fleet will be incredible with the models that will come from your workbench and that are halfway through.

As for programming, I must finish building the Bolivian DH-9 for now, but already thinking about the next models.

Don, when I did my mandatory military service, in my youth (late 1980s) I served two years in the Brazilian Air Force's Aeronautical Police. I often stood armed guard on the FAB Hercules and sometimes flew in them, despite being a large plane, it is a more or less caustrophobic experience staying in the cargo area, not to mention the noise.

Thanks my friend!
