X15 Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 (edited) Happy to share with the final photos of D558 from JetMads • Modification of the canopy for opening from the front • Homemade straps • Paint markings • Modification of airbrakes • Homemade pitot tubes The kit: For their first kit JetMads is strong with a new way of seeing the model, the choice of an original model and a rather good detail. It's a kit that requires a lot of work but still fun to do. On the other hand, JetMads will have to improve the adjustments between the large resin parts and the finish of the 3D parts which are streaked by the printer and difficult or even impossible to remove for the small ones. As far as I'm concerned, I'm looking forward to the Skyrocket planned for the end of the year and the X3 Stiletto !!! Well done JetMads !!

themongoose Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 Great job on a smooth and consistent orange paint application and the weathering just adds to it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Out2gtcha Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 Wow, amazing finish! I take it the speed brakes "overlap" the rear fuselage section, rather than fitting into a recess? Really gives me a lot of hope for the Viggen. Lovely work for sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mywifehatesmodels Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 Gorgeous finish and I like the landing gear, too. It almost hurts the eyes, but in a good way. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 yeah......looking very good, and in respect to the on -following thread concerning the Viggen: i hope it'll turn out the same, but i have my doubts on the continuity getting procucts out of ......that specific country placed at the junction of Europe and Asia, ....just my concern........no politics..............

dutik Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 Funny thing! Looks like something from a Marvel comic. Captain Americas aircraft maybe? Really nice build and paintjob! Regards - dutik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
