Brad Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 (edited) I pulled this out of the stash with the intention of slapping it together in a week, but that didn't quite happen. This is a pretty bad kit and thankfully I only spend $2 on it. The canopy, air intakes and wings have less than great fit and required a fair bit of attention and still aren't prefect, but they're good enough. This was the F-21 Lion boxing, however the decals were shot so I turned it into an Israeli Kfir C-1. Decals were left over from another kit and I added, drop tanks, bombs, bomb rack and sidewinders out of the spares box, along with a pilot. It'll be a decent 4fter model to sit on the table for Make A Mirage at Wings model show next month. Edited September 9, 2015 by Brad 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knight_Flyer Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Looks like you've done a very good job building that one. Unfortunately my last attempt at this kit ended in failure and never did complete the build. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natter Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 'This is a pretty bad kit...' Yep, but you really have made a cracking model out of it. Love the scheme, love the load-out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
