Mr B Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Hi folks, made these as the last builds for 2017. Just under the wire. The Alpha jet is a kinetic kitty modified with the extended fin bits. Used after market seats and decals were from caracal. Paint was custom mixed gunze. Markings from Ivory Coast The q5 full out of box. Built as a pakistani option. Better pics in the new year. Wishing all a happy healty n prospers new year in 2018. managed 10 in total for 2017.

RidgeRunner Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Yes, great builds and great subjects. I'm not a 1/48 fan but you have done great with these. Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vultures1 Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Very nice pair of builds. That Q-5 does look particularly tasty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amblypygid Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Very nice schemes and builds. I like the Ivory Coast Alpha, it's very striking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr B Posted January 1, 2018 Author Share Posted January 1, 2018 Thanks a lot for the nice words. Much appericated...... 11 hours ago, ForestFan said: Lovely builds both. I definitely want a Q5, any issues with the kit? The q5 has great fitting.....only lacking a decent cockpit......and some really thin parts for the gear.....be careful with that as the gear set up is weird in my book......externally lovely details......n the engine/rear section is molded well with all the curves n shapes i await one in 1/48 rgds 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Callahan Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 That Q-5 certainly does look interesting. Glad to hear that the buildability is high. I may have to indulge.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevehnz Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Liking those a lot, especially the Q5, right scale & the markings I want to do one in too. Magic. The Alpha Jet looks darn good in that scheme as well. Steve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modelling minion Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Great job on both models Brian. I like the camo on both of them, like you I am looking forward to a 1/48 Q-5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaracalModels Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Excellent builds - thanks a lot for sharing. First time I am seeing a build of any of the African options on the Alpha Jet sheet! The Q-5 looks great as well, and I think I will make a sheet for this kit later in the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
