red Dog Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 Wonderful model, it's been a pleasure indeed following this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLACK MAMBA Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 Fantastic work Malcolm! You really nailed that grey too now that it is seen in some proper lighting. Brought an aircraft that really lives in the shadows of the SAAF's history to life quite spectacularly. All she needs now is for John to finish his D conversion... And someone best start working on a C conversion so we can give Malcolm the complete trio! Renegade 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renegade Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Wow Malcom, What an absolute treat to follow your build, and such amazing results, especially the painting. Thank you so much for the test build, and it's very rewarding to see it come together with your skills As for the guys commenting on the other Cheetahs, I'll get to them eventually, just so busy lately at my full time job. Cheers, John Kagemusha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
