adameliclem Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Here’s an unfinished F-35, from a gallery at Cybermodeler. Kinda cool. Really ties the room together. Cheers, Adam Tomcatfreak, npb748r, mattcour and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looked pretty nice. Hard to really tell through plastic bags but looked very similar to other modern Trump stuff ie very nice tooling. Big box.

Tony T Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 I like the Deft aquamarine stuff that's replaced the irridescent & lemon hexavalent chromium alloy treatment on fast-movers, but I'm waiting for an F-35B to do in mint choc chip. Sorry Italeri, sorry Trumpeter. You can try making an F-22 to get my money. Tony Daywalker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, to my eyes, this aircraft is just plain ugly, it seems so out of proportion. It's just such an unappealing looking plane to put on my limited shelf space. Hoping that those who love it find the kit a good one. You better praise the Lord...or US DOD for dumping the Boeing XF-32 npb748r 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does make the F-35 look more acceptable ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Come to think of it, I'd go for a Trumpeter 1/32 Su-57 and -75, but would genuinely relish an F-22 and F-35B.) I hope the F-35C sells and encourages more releases of modern subjects. If cash reserves were deeper I would get this kit as it looks to be a fun build. Tony . Edited August 13, 2022 by Tony T typo LSP_Matt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I'd like to do one as a Blue Angel or in gloss scarlet with Naval Missile Center drone markings. Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
