Bri48 Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Hi all, Just finished Kinetic's little "Freedom Fighter" in Canadian markings. Built it straight from the box and painted it with Humbrol Enamels. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary West Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Nice Cold War subject matter - the best and very nicely done Such a shame the Canadians never based CF-5's in Europe I can see why people moan about the wing tip tanks on this kit now 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snapper_city Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Like it. What is the issue with the tip tanks??? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary West Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 (edited) Like it. What is the issue with the tip tanks??? Shape - slightly too slim and maybe a little out shape at the front. Not a major issue though Edited September 8, 2013 by Gary West Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starfighter Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 That's a nice F-5 you've got there. I like the CF-104 as well ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jessica Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 That's a really lovely build. One small nit about your Starfighter pilot: His helmet is a USAF type. Canadian pilots wore this one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

russ c Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Great job on the Freedom Fighter Brian ! I might have to do a Skoshi Tiger USAF Vietnam one now, so I can have one with a refueling probe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patjb Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Very nice, the finish and the subject are brilliant. I use to love seeing the Dutch ones at air shows. Did the Dutch have an aerobatic team with them? I remember a couple at Mildenhall many moons ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 (edited) I use to love seeing the Dutch ones at air shows. Did the Dutch have an aerobatic team with them? I remember a couple at Mildenhall many moons ago. They had a pairs routine called "Double dutch" in the late 80's, remember seeing them display at Brawdy. Nice CF-5, looks good.

Shaun Double Dutch, that's them. In fact I'm sure I had a decal sheet with them on in 1/72. Thanks for that Shaun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
