New Viggen in 1/48th: Has this been mentioned before?

Yep - I know! Just hope the pricing is good (or even just acceptable) , and theres a few more resin bits that in the Lansen.

Anyone up for Meadows and Lakes splinter camo decals then? Or shall we expect a rise in Kabuki masking tape costs just after its release...:)

Cheers

Let's have a look, at the Gator's J-37 Viggen paint mask in 1/72nd and 1/48th:

The Viggen is coming along nicely and we have let IPMS Stockholm take a sneak peek at what's coming.. The reaction was as we had hoped for! We can't wait either to hear what YOU have to say!

Still working on the boxart!

But the Tarangus homepage is gone!

Being one of the owners of Tarangus, I'm quite pleased that I frequent Britmodeller daily.. I had no idea the homepage had disappeared!!! It will reappear shortly, don't know why it's gone..

The Viggen IS indeed coming along nicely. I wish I could post some 3D pix of it, but I think we'll wait until after Christmas..

I have been trying to find some decent freeware in order to publish the very nice CAD models I have received from our designer, but as of yet to no avail.. So, instead we will publish the boxart when it's finished and then show you the real stuff!

Delayed until summer 2013

Bad news, good news..
Regarding the Viggen project we have an update, which is both bad news and good news. The bad news is that it will be delayed until this summer. The good news is WHY!
As the CAD model looked so good, we have decided to abandon the short run technologies that were used for the Lansen and instead aim for the best possible mould we can get – ie a metal mould! This unfortunately delays the release by a few months but ensures that the mighty Viggen is finally represented by a top quality plastic model kit!
The Tarangus 1/48 JA 37 Viggen – Worth waiting for!

MPM has just announced 1/48th Saab AJ37 & Sk37 Viggen kits - while Tarangus is working on the JA37 version.

MPM's Viggen will be in fact variants of the future Tarangus JA37 Viggen.

Time (or Z Aviator) will tell.
