Top cat: Forgot to paint red/blue navigation lights on the wing’s pylons. Done and semi-gloss coated the top side so the bird is curing for a few days.
Also, backtracked to photos here 3 days ago that the strengthened nose landing gear lost the top 2 taxi lights. I’m going to use the other kit’s. Assembly line has been vacuumed so the missing…[Read more]
Thank you. The cockpit & exhaust nozzles are resin. Didn’t fit the kit w/o mod. Since I have 3 sets of PE, mistakes go to the trash and use the good ones.
Thanks guys. I’m enjoying the build. The harder, the more enjoyable. I’ve learned a few things so far. 3 sets of PE. Some duplicates. I picked out the best.
Hey guys! I’ve been very busy working on my entry, and I think I will finish it in time. I’ve been documenting my progress, then I will upload some more photos son.

same, I’m feeling the crush of slacking off earlier on. I’d also love like a huge gallery of all the entrants somewhere on site after this is over, cos there are so many builds we just won’t see

Ok Thanks Otaku
You don’t need to worry about classification. Just submit the best work to HLJ and they’ll move your work to the right class. If in doubt, select beginner.
Intake vents prepped. Most pylons installed. Airframe touched up and weathered. Oil streaking + rust. Topside not good enough. Be re-done later. Panel lined washed wheel bays…
Thank you. I’m not 100% satisfied with the camo. Beside pre-shading & mottling, there’s one more way like post-shading camos. I saw some in magazines, but they didn’t go into details about how to do it. I experienced with my camo on the Flanker D. My brush is Badger 105 with 0.3mm. A bit too big for 1/72, but next time maybe I’ll do 1/48 or 1/32.…[Read more]
