Tony T Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 13 hours ago, LSP_K2 said: In just a few days, I'll be seeing the Blue Angels flying Super Hornets here for the first time, and I'm so looking forward to that. We lucked out and got a pass to the FAA controlled side, so we'll basically be alone to see the performance up close and personal. I last saw them in Charleston twelve years ago, flying the original Hornets. Utterly amazing. Have been toying with the idea of braving the allegedly borderline unbuildable big Revell Hornet F to do Blue #7. The Mirage F.1 has worn some fancy schemes too over the years, especially in the AdA. The about to be re-popped tiny Special Hobby kit (also stuffed into a Heller box) is drawing attention, and I'm also looking forward to seeing what Trumpeter do with the bigger Kitty Hawkversions. If they bought the CAD maybe they'd consider upscaling. Tony LSP_K2 and Marcel111 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current Italeri one which is also available reboxed by Revell. Fit and design are both poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thierry laurent Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 By the way the kit will not only include SAF markings but also some French F-1C ones. Moreover a warload (A2A & A2G if my memory's right) will be included. rafju, Daniel Leduc and Kagemusha 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GusM Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 Might be the same project but the quality of John's resin castings is far beyond any crude 3D printing. Buy with confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buy with confidence. I think 3d printing was only used for the master initial prototype. It was cautiously refined to become kit parts to cast in resin.
