panel wash applied typical "crude" Airfix panel lines DSC_0005 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr DSC_0006 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr prop painted and decals applied DSC_0007 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr

wing tips don´t match in size and shape for a conversion you could use the hole wing of the Hasegawa or Airfix F-40 Sabre, but still would need some surgery so it´s gonna be the Philippine one DSC_0001 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr wings not glued on yet but fit is good DSC_0002 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr DSC_0003 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr gonna add the fuel tanks DSC_0004 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr

just found out, that the "L" had the elongated F-40 wings gonna try if the wing tips of the Hasegawa F-40 kit fit the Revell one, if not, gonna do a Philippine "D"

and fuselage already closed added 20g lead as noseweight didn´t know which colour the IB of the Thai F-86 had, grey or black, went with black in the end DSC_0001 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr DSC_0002 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr DSC_0003 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr

Thanks Dave! Well, whereas the initial 1978 and the 1986 kit editions show Goodyear tires on the box art and include decals, this 2010 edition doesn´t show and include them.... Somewhere buried in my decal stash there should be remnants of a Goodyear logo sheet. Maybe gonna retrofit the model, if I find it.

Thanks for your comments!

some paint for the cockpit DSC_0002 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr

the masking fun starts sadly, for the Meng kit there are only masks for the early RAM coating, but you can use some pieces also for the late one using New Ware masks and masking tape DSC_0001 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr
