I would like to join in with the Academy Sabre kit, using the Colombian markings options on the Microscale sheet for Canadair Mk6 Sabres.

I don't think I've seen a Columbian Sabre built before. I'm looking forward to seeing it progress. :)

Cheers Mozzy.

Started: The cockpit was put together fairly quickly and the fuselage joined together.

And I've also started the Airfix Sabre, as the colours are the same, plus I bought a Modeldecal sheet for a Magister build, and it also has

options on it to fit an R.A.F Sabre:

One thing I noticed was the difference in size between the two kits. The Academy Sabre is a slightly bigger, especially in the

depth of the fuselage. So, someone has got it wrong??

And a little bit more, not much, but a little bit:

An update: I've recently had a slight case of mojolostitis, and couldn't really get enthused at all about doing any modelling. But these things

pass, and I started a different build to these last week and that sort of kickstarted things back up,(although my Magister still languishes to the

side on the modelling table). I basically just done an hour here and there and this is where I'm at::

The Airfix RAF Sabre, pretty much all the paint done, just another coat on the undersides,

The Academy Colombian Sabre, halfway through paint, with the underside not touched at all.
