NealParkes Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Kit manufacture: Hasegawa N° 00537 Scale: 1/72 Type: S-3B Viking Extras used: None OOB Paints and colours used: Gunze Aquous H308, H337 Other info: So I've been building this in the background and thought I'd share it for some feedback. The kit is pleasant but shows it's age with some flash and a few fit issues. I also managed to make myself some problems but in the end I think it look the part. I scratch build the refuelling pod from a fuel tank and a refuelling pod from a Revell Tornado, it isn't accurate but good enough for me. Also I have never tried to weather a raised panel line kit so thought I'd just go with some Flory Dark Dirt, it has done the trick. Anyway enough waffle so here is the finished kit:1/72 Hasegawa S-3B Viking by Neal, on Flickr1/72 Hasegawa S-3B Viking by Neal, on Flickr1/72 Hasegawa S-3B Viking by Neal, on Flickr 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

modelling minion Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Great job, a very nice Viking indeed. 3 minutes ago, Tony Oliver said: True, hardly ever see a viking. Are there any other choices out there kit wise? The only other kit in 1/72 is the Airfix one, which is also quite a nice kit. There is the ESCI kit in 1/48 which was also boxed by AMT. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapam Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 I love it! The type is moderately familiar to me but, must say, it looks like a baby jet that hasn't fully grown yet. Excellent build. Love the subtle panel lines and all the stencilling. Brilliant 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
