I think your work is spectacular, and would love to have an aircraft model you've done.
I offer a trade: new minis, or finished models (try not to laugh) or ca$h.

The cheapest way to get a pair of 1/285 GHQ F4F-4 corsairs to you is for me to buy them US$12 get them sent to Aust US$13 then back to you US $8 or in letter US$2.
But a far better result would be to commission a professional like saguaro painting service in the US. They charge about $5 a model. Total cost with postage about $15 vs $21 for postage alone. I'm good, and I can do oddities and bespoke decals they can't, but when it comes to painting popular 1/285 things, I'm out of their league.
Grognard:
Austria ? Like Vienna, Salzburg and Innsbruk?
I thought you were in Arizona, for some reason?
:) LoL :) Imma doof. Obviously, an exchange is not cost effective.
If it's okay with you, I'll continue to *SQUEEEE* over photos of your work.

Nope. Not that close to you. Australia, as in Sydney, Canberra, Woolloomooloo, Wagga Wagga.... Kangaroos rather than Mozart Kugeln.
I'm in Canberra.
Squeeing, while completely voluntary, is much appreciated.

For the information of non-Australians, that curious square green compound in the foreground is Parliament House, the seat of our national government, and the water beyond is Lake Burley Griffin.

The rest are a mix of Netherlands East Indies (Buffalo, P-35 Hawk), RAF (Whirlwind, P40 Tomahawk), Luftwaffe(Bf 110D), Finnish (Buffalo, P-35 Hawk), Soviet (I-16, I-152, P-39 Airacobra), Japanese(Ki-27 Nate, Ki-43 Oscar), USAAC(P-39Airacobra), Chinese (I-16, I-152, P-35 Hawk) and French(P-35 Hawk).

I confess that the Curtiss P-40 is the WW2 aircraft closest to my heart, since it was flown against Imperial Japan by both Australian and Chinese pilots, as well as, of course, our American allies.
