Wee Beastie Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 That's it, I'm done!Not then best of builds, just needed some TLC, and lots of dry fitting.If I were to do this scheme again, I'd use a wider brush for the winter camo, the brush I used was the widest I had, and the result is what it is, but I think it's turned out okay. Paints are a mixture of Vallejo Model Air and Akan Blurred effect base is from Coastal Kits Display Bases.Untitled by ian gaskell, on FlickrUntitled by ian gaskell, on FlickrUntitled by ian gaskell, on FlickrUntitled by ian gaskell, on FlickrUntitled by ian gaskell, on FlickrUntitled by ian gaskell, on Flickr 47 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baldwin8 Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 That combination base and camo really make it an eye-catcher and conversation piece. Well done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcdonnell Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Hello,Ian - For a few moments I thought I was on a hillside in the Mach Loop! I like the Jaguar aircraft and your paint job on this build looks superb to me.Add the highly realistic display and we have a real 'Fast Cat'.Brilliant work indeed. 😉👍 All the best,Paul. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin Ford Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Wow, what an impressive and effective job you have done there. Even the angle that the plane is in adds to it. Bravo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phone Phixer Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Fantastic job, a lovely version of one of 41(F)'s arctic cats. Another great end product of Kitty Hawks mess, its just a shame it takes so much extra work to achieve that standard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buccymad Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 (edited) you must have a great sence of achievment with this kit .all the rotten reviews,how hard it is to turn into a decent model,and here's you ,not only finishing it but "knocking it out of the park" so to speak .that cropped overhead shot is almost indistinguisable from the real thing !! tis what we all aspire to good sir Edited April 16, 2017 by buccymad spellcheck 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The kit does test ones modelling skills, but lots of dry fitting and TLC, and it's not a bad kit really. The Jaguar is good prcatice for my next build, Kittyhawk's new Su-17 Fitter!

Janremco Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Great one the presentation gives me the idea that the cat is on a low level mission. Well dobe. Jan Remco 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyingdutchman Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Very very nice Ian. I like the plane and the camouflage. I thing you really made this Jaguar go fast combined with the diorama. The second to last picture looks so realistisc. I googled the Coastal Kits and favorited their site. Evert 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
