artoor_k 703 Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 (edited) Hello, Beside SF, "What if" is my favourite genre of modelling so I couldn't resist the urge to join this GB Few years ago there was a tender for multirole fighter in Poland, also known as a "Tender of Century". There was three competitors: Mirage 2000, F-16C Blk. 52+ and JAS-39. F-16 won, although there were a lot of controversy around this choice. I really hoped that Gripen will win and...to be honest...I still think that it could be a better solution for Polish Air Force. In february, this year, I bought a Revell 1/32 JAS-39 which is old model. While buying it I was sure that I can make it in only one type of markings- polish! I bought resin seat replacement and Techmod F-16 decal set- this one: I'll probably adapt second scheme for my Gripen...or rather Griffon Edited May 24, 2015 by artoor_k Tnarg, MARU5137 and Derek B 3 Link to post Share on other sites

marauderdriver 4,048 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I did a 3 rd Tactical Squadron Mig-21 MF with a Raven on the tail a few years back. I thought of using it on a F-16. The MiG was painted very similar to a US F-16 with a blue-gray bottom. Looking forward to seeing this Jack MARU5137 and artoor_k 2 Link to post Share on other sites

artoor_k 703 Posted June 28, 2015 Author Share Posted June 28, 2015 (edited) Hello, Time for surprises... After I've received resin seats for Griffon, I was delighted...A LOT OF DETAILS, GREAT CASTING WOW! Then I wanted to put it into cockpit tub imediatelly...well...just look... Revell seat is significantly smaller than Paragon Design one... ...which leads to this...There is no chance to fit resin seat into cockpit tub...without cutting Also, new decal set had came. Without surprises Edited June 28, 2015 by artoor_k MARU5137 and Girlscanplay2 2 Link to post Share on other sites
marauderdriver 4,048 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 It is a little HUGE for the pit, but the kit seat looks pretty good, and some dress-up parts would make it Great. Keeping an eye on this one Jack Link to post Share on other sites
