  1. No, their matches for the color, this is from Yoav Efrati, so the deal is to find matches from Colorcoats, Xtracolor or Ak Real Bo
  2. Humbrol 29, 134 and 165 should me a perfect match ! Bo
  3. This thread is what makes Britmodeller so utter brilliant! @Troy Smith I am doing a 1/48 Hurricane Mk I from 46 Sqn during the Norway campaign., probably PO-X These aircraft when in standard early day fighter scheme with night and white underside. my question: what color where the wheel well and wheel well covers inside color and what color did the undercarriage and wheel spoke have ?, I have gone through Mike Postletwaites wingleader book about Mk I but could not find an answer. Sorry if this question is a repost Bo
  4. @Tbolt Thanks a billion, just What I was looking for, here I Can se that the camera lenses are not flush with the mount Bo
  5. Sorry, no I meant the camera windows and mount in the bottom fuselage.
  6. Anyone got pictures of the fuselage camera on Spitfire PR Mk XI TIA Bo Hermansen
  7. The orange is unknown, anecdotal evidence say ā€œinternational orangeā€ FS 12197 LM decals makes them in 1/72 and 1/48 https://lndecals.dk/aircraft-decals/1-48-decals/
  8. From What Kinetic kit did the they fix the ā€œFlanker noseā€ https://www.scalemates.com/kits/kinetic-k48002-f-16am-block-15--106855
  9. They could carry Mk 81/82 bombs, SUU-30 CBU, LAU-3 rocket pods, Nepal and British BL-755 CBU.
  10. Your kit is an F-5A, the decals are for an F-5E Bo
  11. Hataka in general has a tendency toā€jump the fence at it lowest pointā€ and sometimes cocking up even the simplest colors in accuracy. That said their easy to work with, and for details work quite well.
  12. Amazinly I got more done today, did some touch up on my crappy brush work, Thats gonna take some timeā€¦ā€¦. I got a little side tracked, I broke out my Hataka blue acrylics, I use enamels and lacquers, but for brush work I prefere acrylics as enamels reek like hell and lacquers dry out to fast, the blue Hataka are hard to tell apart in the drawer, so some markings where in order. While my brush work where drying, I did some fuselage work, again I Cut the guide vanes in order to get the perfect fit.
  13. Thanks Today I got some detail done in the cockpit, I Will have to fix my poor brush work later. I started on the fuselage, the vents are not a perfect fit A fix is to remove guide vanes on the fuselage And now the fit is perfect This fix is not my own, another modeler gave me this tip when I was building my first F-5E
  14. You are making progress, what color scheme are you going for? Bo
  15. I just about had time to throw on some paint between cooking diner and packing for work tomorrow. most of the cockpit related thing are now 36231, I use AK Real thinned with Tamiya lacquer thinner.
  16. Robert, I removed it to be 100% sure for a great fit, if you fiddle a little with all the parts the fit is amazing. Bo
  17. Yes with h3lp from a friend šŸ˜‰ Did more assembly, mostly to stabilize the front cockpit parts. AFV Club is a great kit, but the fit are not always helped by the ā€œhelp linesā€, they often need to be removed then you can glue the part in place with a perfect fit
  18. Starting out, getting all cockpit parts ready for paint, I am a bit ahead, as I have a Wolfpack late seat from my previous AFV Club F-5 build, itā€™s already painted. Cockpit will be Modelmaster 36231 dark gull grey. https://imgur.com/a/30NDxaH sorry about the link, I cannot figure out how to put it directly into post
  19. Thanks, I am struggling with the reply and picture stuff Bo
  20. Here is my entry, F-5E from the Royal Bahrain Air Force , Operation Desert Storm 1991. I will add a KASL cockpit set, master gun barrels and pitot tube. Bo https://imgur.com/a/nhUSpjj https://imgur.com/a/UgpNWzB
  21. Don`t follow that color drawing, Gunze 309 and 311 are Ok for 36622 and 34079, but for 30140 and 30400 you need other colors Bo
  22. Yes, AFAIR they both had rails mostly in EDSG but also in MSG and white. Here are a more accurate color picture of AIM-9L https://imgur.com/a/XQI4Phf Bo
