Russian M-08/39 Naval Mine
Of course your first experience with a new line of paint should be gloss white. My local hobby store is unable to restock Tamiya so I had to try the blue square paints. I got it to shoot ok but like the mr hobby aqueous I tried, the snot like consistency makes the dilution a fine line between thin enough to spray and has enough pigment to be opaque.
Hopefully the candy stripes will be symmetrical enough. I eyeballed them rather than measuring. The Tamiya gloss red is a lot glossier than the revell gloss white.
Not bad.

Ben, you wrote "I don't have enough concurrent projects". If you need more space to store those running projects I can recommend the IKEA KVISSLE. It is a letter tray, the trays are plated with cork to avoid scratches on the model parts. I have two, and all layers are filled 😉

It has been a great struggle but I am down to four concurrent projects. I can't decide if limiting work in progress makes things more or less fun.

Calling it done. My camera has trouble with the red in bright sun for some reason.

My wife thinks I should add a loop of wire to it and make it a Christmas ornament for next year's tree.
