Bombs in Progress; Sorting and painting all kinds Bombs

I have build many models all kinds of scales. Most of them went away, but I kept the bombs. So at one point have been thinking I can do 2 things. Either bin them, or get all of them together sort them out, and start painting them for furture use. Time consuming it is, but in the end I have all kinds of weaponry ready to use.

Enjoy and comments are welcome!

I have completed painting series of bombs which I did have all over the place. So sorted them all, and started working om them first to strip of the old paint first. Then sand them and start painting them in the colours I researched over time.

I paint layer by layer and finish them with Tamiya X-22 gloss

I never know when and where I need the bomb in the future so keep them gloss and when needed matt varnish them or paint details or decals on them is possible
