Ted Barrett Posted August 14, 2023 Author Share Posted August 14, 2023 More progress. Glued the nose on, fuselage halves and one set of speed brakes in closed position. Greg W, LSP_Kevin, MikeMaben and 9 others 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ted Barrett Posted August 16, 2023 Author Share Posted August 16, 2023 Now she's starting to look like an plane! I changed my mind on the finish and have decided to do the camouflaged FSD aircraft. themongoose, phasephantomphixer, LSP_Kevin and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ted Barrett Posted August 19, 2023 Author Share Posted August 19, 2023 Thanks Mongoose! My favourite part of any model is painting the cockpit! themongoose 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Barrett Posted August 19, 2023 Author Share Posted August 19, 2023 Managed to squeeze a little bit more into my kit while my mother was visiting. The seat is now glued in place instead of sitting loose...I'll worry about seat belts a bit later. And the hud pieces are glued in place and painted.

Ted Barrett Posted November 12, 2023 Author Share Posted November 12, 2023 I finally have my bird up on it's landing gear! I don't imagine that I will have her done by the end of the month but I will keep trying to make progress!

phasephantomphixer Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 Cool, always love that kit. Great choice on that early camo, used to see it in Aviation week magazine my Dad would get back then. 50747 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottsGT Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 (edited) Nice build! I thought I was the only one crazy enough to take on this old kit. I built this one about this time last year.

Ted Barrett Posted December 2, 2023 Author Share Posted December 2, 2023 Thanks phasephantomphixer and ScottsGT (really like your rollout colours version!) for your comments and anyone else who commented or reacted as well. I've enjoyed working on this kit, which is good as I have, I think another 2 or 3 of them to build up. Unfortunately I've run out of gas for the build and time on this Group Build, so Kevin if you could move this over to Works in Progress for me that would be greatly appreciated and I can share further work on my F-16 when I get back to it. For now I have started working on an 1/32 Eduard Bf 109E-1 to keep myself at the workbench. Talk to everyone soon, Ted LSP_Kevin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
