Mike’s only additions to Modelsvit’s 1/72 scale Beriev Be-12PS were antenna wires and bolstering the landing gear with wire inserted into the struts. He painted it as a Ukrainian search-and-rescue plane with MRP, Tamiya, and Model Master colors over Vallejo primer, varying the shading on the upper surfaces to show fading and weathering with Tamiya Smoke for exhaust stains, and enamel washes to show panel lines.
