Darby Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Here's one I made earlier. OK so the kit has some shape/dimension/scale issues but; if you want a kit that goes together easily and a stress free build then I can certainly recommend it. Paints used were Xtracolor Ocean Blue/Forest Green/Lichtgrau/ Sand. A bit of pastel weathering with a bit of silver pencil chipping. I did stuff a load of weight in the nose but it still plonked it's backside down and so the bit of Blutak (other taks are available) under the nosewheel. The decals are really glossy but settle down without any bother at all. 30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Head in the clouds. Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Superb and a paint scheme that suits us folks with shaky hands. Do give us the Austrian version, they would make a good pair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerrardandrews Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 interesting and great looking model 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire31 Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 A very respectable portrait of a J 29B from the F 22 Wing in service with the U.N. in Congo 1962! I have to say that the Hobbyboss kit looks better than I had been led to believe. The scale discrepancy (it's supposed to be a bit on the wrong side of 1:50) won't be noticeable unless you put it next to a Tarangus Tunnan. The Austrian machines were, of course, a different version, the J 29F with afterburner and dogtooth wing. Looking good!
