Hi all, so this is my first post here and first go at a 1/48 scale model. It's the Trumpeter JF-17 Thunder/FC-1 Xiaolong kit in the Pakistan Air Force scheme (no way I was trying the green/red scheme 😅). It's carrying 3 fuel tanks, 2 x PL-12s and 2 x PL-5s. Pretty good kit, no major issues- though I'm never a fan of creating my own holes for hardpoints and I'm still not completely used to using the photoetched parts. But nevertheless happy with the result and my 7th model complete. Thanks!

Hi, all! Have two absolutely identical photo FC-1 first prototype N01: But where is true blue color? Also have other photos this FC-1 prototype 01: I marked the photo from one to five from top to bottom, you can vote for the blue color that you consider the most reliable. You can indicate your shade, it will be very good if you give arguments in favor of your choice. (Six question, traditional just for fun!😉😁) In order to finally confuse everything!😁 1.For Photoshop fans who like to tweak the white balance. Wing missiles will not work as a fulcrum! Because they are not white: ...oops! 2. 50 shadow😁 Chinese blue: Link, because problem with copyright Airliners.net: https://www.airliners.net/photo/China-Air-Force/Shenyang-J-6A/1196708 But look as difference one shadow blue depending on the lighting! Decal interpretation: (FS34108???? Seriously??? Green???) Decal interpretation: Also difference FS35095 or FS35183 as blue. 3. Most interesting moment! Thanks to this, the topic: Have close shadow blue colour Myanmar Air Force's JF-17, first prototype FC-1 and JL-9: ....but, other photo JL-9, first prototype FC-1: Also have close blue shadow! Why did I have this question? The fact is that I actually have a model FC-1 from Trumpeter in 72nd scale ready for painting. I don't like the paint options out of the Trumpeter box, because I don't like mutants, where the plane bears a lot of insignia while being built in one country. Of course my interesting this blue color in the interpretation of paints GS or Tamiya....🙄 The opinion @Thant would be very interesting in this topic! B.R. Serge P.S. scalemodels.ru user opinion was split in half on analogue topic.🤗

Hi all. Here goes my latest build. A JF-17 in Pakistani colors (or lack of it 🤪) . The kit is Trumpeter in 1/72. Good details and some PE for seat belts and exhaust nozzle, which i found to difficult to mount, so i decided o use the plastic one and some internal parts only. There is some problem joining the lower and the upper fuselage one around the air intakes and the lerx but its minimum. Brothers: Thats all for now. Thank you all. Regards.
