Interesting subject, and some good work you've got there Werner. Can't go wrong with a MiG. /Bosse

Thanks a lot Robert. /Bosse

Thanks a lot Gentlemen. I've enjoyed your company. /Bosse

Thanks CliffB. /Bosse

My Lansen from the Swedish Air Force is finished. The kit is Tarangus in 1/48 brush painted with AKAN acrylics. I've used most of the dedicated PE sets for it. I havn't added the boarding ladder to it. I've started on it, but didn't finish it due to the complexity in the design. Perhaps I'll add it later, or to the next Lansen. 103 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 104 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 107 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr And now it resides in the display cabinet. 108 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 109 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr Build thread can be seen here. https://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/235047447-sweaf-a32a-lansen-tarangus-148/ Thanks for watching. /Bosse

Hi. My Lansen is finished. Friday evening I got the second Rb04C in place. 098 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 099 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 100 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 101 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr And the FOD guards. 102 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr And with that I could finish the rest. I didn't use the PE boarding ladder due to it's complexity. Perhaps I'll add it later, or use it on the next Lansen. 103 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 104 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 105 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 106 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 107 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr And now it resides in the display cabinet. 108 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 109 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr That's all for this build. It's been a bit complicated, mostly due to all PE that I've used. But I'll will build at least one more. Thanks for watching. /Bosse

Hi. I've got some paint on my Russian Mitten. 054 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 055 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 053 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr Quite a difference in size. To be continued..... /Bosse

Hi Robert. The pitot tube is brass from Maestro. But I think it's manufactured by Master and only branded by Maestro. I did some more small things on my Lansen yesterday. The pylons for the Rb04's is in place. I broke one of the bracings when I cut it free from the pour blocks. But it was easy to glue it in place after the pylon was glued to the wing. 093 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr Nose gear covers and a fin has found it's place. 094 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr I've also got one of the Rb04's on the pylon. 095 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 096 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 097 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr I'll get the second one in place as soon as I've finished painting the broken piece on the pylon. My plan for this weekend is to actually finish this build. I've got the FOD guards to do, rolling and folding coloured PE should be exiting enough for a friday evening. To be continued...... /Bosse

Hi. My Lansen has got some TLC. I've got the airbrakes and pitot tube in place. 090 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 091 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 092 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr Next I'll paint the pitot tube, and perhaps hang some missiles. To be continued..... /Bosse

Hi. During the weekend lost of thing has happened with my Russian Mitten. I've got the stencils in place on the ordnance. 045 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr I think there are around 15 stencils per weapon. And Zvezdas decals performed very well, they are really thin and have shown no silvering. I've got the FOD doors inplace 046 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 047 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 048 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr After that I glued the wings on. 049 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr Well not quite correct, I first had to move the louvre doors for the secondary inlets from upper wing part to the fuselage. I couldn't get the wings in place with the build sequence Zvezda wants you to use. When the top part of the wings had dried I built up the rest of the wings. 050 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr And I've also started to putty and sand some seams. 051 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 052 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr The plan for this evening is to contine sanding and puttying, and then some primer..... To be continued..... /Bosse

Hi. Yet another quikie. Yesterday I got the exhausts heat shields and covers on. 043 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 044 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr The heat shields are ment to be bent slightly and then pressed in place under the exhaust. Don't forget to clamp them in place while the glue set. To be continued..... /Bosse

Lovely P-3 Ray. I'm sure I'll be reverting back to this thread when I'll get around to build my Marineflieger P-3. /Bosse

Hi. Here's another quikie. I'm working on the secondary intakes. Aft of the FOD guard door there are seven louvre door on the topside of the fuselage. These contraptions has to be glued on the inside of the wing section. 041 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 042 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr So I now have to paint the outer side of the doors with the aircraft camo colours, and the inner side have to white. So I guess it'll take some more days before I can glue the wings on. This kit has really a strange construction order, it's like putting an onion back together after you've peeled it. To be continued..... /Bosse

Hi. I've now mated the nose section to the fuselage. 036 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 037 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 038 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr The gaps between the intake have been filled with some PPP 039 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr And then I just had to dryfit the wings. 040 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr I think it looks great.
