carter478 Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Here is Hasegawa J-35Ö in 1/72th scale. The kit consistent nice recessesed panel lines and details expect for cockpit and wheel bay. Maybe due to its age, the decals was extremely fragile, terrible to work with. I painted it with acrylic paint and applied matte finish. I added plastic sheet and copper wires in the wheel bay, not so accurate, I know. The shape of vertical fin tip was incorrect, I sawed it off and replaced with carved plastic sheet. Air intake added by modified part C1. Carved the rear fuselage to replace with new air brakes that made by aluminum sheet. Added antenna with part E5, it did not mentioned on the manual. More antennas...... Thanks for your watching, and appologize for my lame english. 32 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Head in the clouds. Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 You have a little cracker there, your weathering is subtle and balanced and it is a colourful subject. Very nice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carter478 Posted August 27, 2017 Author Share Posted August 27, 2017 I'm so glad you like it, cheers mate! By the way, what's the meaning of "have a little cracker"? Just out of curiosity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qn30jEkPz7 Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 "have a little cracker" just means you have a very good example of something. It's an informal term of praise. I'll add similar admiration in Scots dialect. Your build is a right wee stoater 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
