Great work on this "First Fighter", though the DC defender? Back in the 90s, and before it was the right base, only the squadron would have on it, LY (48FIS) they closed her down and brought in the F-16s from Vermont ANG. Then in '01 September 11 they shifted to the watch back to me and the 113th. (see "beware of what lurks")
OK, enough Mil stuff, the modls look great! What lenses are you using for photographing them, is this a "macro lens?" The lighting gives a great spacial feel to the pictures.

kit used was a Tamiya original issue,so these markings represent an F-15A from the late 70s! no special lens,really,just my little Canon digicam.

Would that be the "cannon sure shot"? I'm looking for a good quick shoot camera for my son and one to augment my Eos Digi rebel. Again your shots and model work is great. Do you ever do any from scratch? Also, if you ever come across a B-1 (Tale Flash DY) please let me know. Also if you ever need pics for ideas for your models, I have worked F-15s from Langley & Kadena, B-1s at Dyes and now 16s in DC. I am very impressed with what you have done.
Cheers,
Duke
