Hi all, I'd like to jump into this group build with a kit that I've had lying round for a while. I've been a big fan of the all-weather Sabres since the 1970s Airfix kit made its appearance, and I've long wanted to model the F-86K. I have a Revell F-86D earmarked for the Royal Danish Air Force, but that's out of the scope of this build as the main airframe is together. I intend to finish this as a Bundesluftwaffe machine in NATO disruptive camouflage. One thing I want to sort out in that regard is whether the green was RAL 6014 Gelboliv or RAL 6005 Olivgrun. Starting as ever with the box and contents Instructions front cover Centre pages Painting instructions for intended scheme Transfers Film and photo-etch Plastic Resin Transparencies Short run kits can be challenging, but I'm looking forward to getting going on this.

Hello fellow modellers, I present you my Fulcrum, the Italeri kit in 1/72 has a bit of a story itself, it was bought and assembled at around the year 1999 when i was a kid and stood proud with russian colours 20 years or so... until i got back at full on modelling and i decided to re paint it because i needed something to do a airbrushing workshop in the modelling club i joined last year, so the model itself was finished at around march 2018. One thing that caught my eye was the weathering in the radome areas and the nose wich was caused by an experiment around 1993 wich consisted in painting this areas in an unusual light gray tone wich was worned out quite rapidly showing the dark gray underneath. I made the intakes and sensor covers in scratch, and the whole right vertical rudder (made from plasticard) ... and a few more details.. The decals where custom made and printed in decal paper from a photo of the original machine. Altough this kit was planned as a practice and learning base, and considering the really poor shape when i decided to use as a experiment, it took some momentum and i tryed my best to make it special, despite a lot of errors i enjoyed it very much. Later on i bought the new Fulcrum trumpeter in 1/72 to make it in DDR camo wich looks terrific from the start (and will take much less headaches..i hope) ... so well see... So... enough yapping... Mig 29 Bundesluftwaffe based in Leck in 1993.
