cardiff guy Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 (edited) This is the hasegawa Mitsubisi F.2 in 1/72 scale. A few firsts used here, first time using Mr Hobbie Piant, First time using Plats decal and the first time using Humbrol's newish water based gloss varnish. can totally recomend the first two but I could'nt get on with the varnish some of the decals silvered. Also a Hasegawa F 16 to give you some scale. Hope you like it Glenn Edited August 20, 2017 by cardiff guy typo. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha Delta 210 Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Great work (and SO similar to the F-16!) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russ c Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Very nice, looks like an F-16 on steroids, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antoine Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 This is actually an F-2A. T-2 is a twin seater from the previous generation, looking like a Jaguar E/T.2. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapam Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Excellent build. Cool that you show it next to the F-16 for comparison. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 The F-2 is basically an indigenous built half child of the F-16. They pretty much liked the F-16c but then added the idea of the increased size of the F-18 superhornet and built an F-16C that is something like 12-20% larger than its cousin. Not exactly sure about the proportions but i think its closer to the 12% #. I am a fan of both the F-2 and that scheme so i say great build 👍. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehnz Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Really nice job on that Glenn, I've one in stock & its great to see how well they come together. Afaik, the F-2 is a bay longer in the fuselage & bigger composite wings. How that equates to % bigger, I'll go with CFFU. Steve. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
