smudger Posted November 15, 2013 Author Posted November 15, 2013 Ha ha Barney, seriously, how did I not notice that, oh dear Thx for pointing that out, I'm actually intrigued now & will check the decal instructions when I get home from work as the orientation of the fuel filler decals on the instruction sheet is wrong as has been reliably pointed out to me & the text on that decal should follow the wing main spar angle, we live & learn every day folks. I said at the beginning its not entirely accurate, thats my excuse & I'm sticking to it guys & gals ;-) Happy modelling everyone, Martin
LSP_Ron Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 Nice work, I did the same one several years ago. The kit is a little clunky when you first look at it but it really does build up nicely, especially if you used Harold's cockpit. It also has absolutely the best stressed skin effect molded into it that I have ever seen
joe Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 Great job mate. That's one sweet looking Sabre.....nice!
Old Dog Flying Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 Martin, if you need a couple of new flags let me know as I do have a selection of flag decals. Did the same for Tigger on his sword Barney
smudger Posted November 16, 2013 Author Posted November 16, 2013 Martin, if you need a couple of new flags let me know as I do have a selection of flag decals. Did the same for Tigger on his sword Barney Thanks very much for the offer Barney, much appreciated, but I'll leave it as it is mate & consider it a lesson learnt. Its not something that will bother me that much when I see it on my shelf. Happy modelling, Martin
smudger Posted November 16, 2013 Author Posted November 16, 2013 That's lovely Martin. How was the AM cockpit installation? I had this kit but sold it, and now I want it back after seeing your model. Cheers Brad Hey Brad, Cockpit went in very nicely, just a bit of sanding here & there as you'd expect I don't remember it giving me many issues at all mate. Happy modelling, Martin
Big Tony Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 That looks really nice indeed, with beautiful paintwork. I have the same kit to make an RAF Sabre and I hope mine turns out half as nice, Cheers Tony
ScoobyDoo Posted December 29, 2013 Posted December 29, 2013 (edited) Your flags on the fin are backwards. The Union Jack is always forward on the Red Ensign Barney I was going to point out the same thing. Leading Edge has also made an error on the flags, something to do with the coat of arms. Canuck models has the flag correct. Edited December 29, 2013 by ScoobyDoo
