85sqn Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Hi Folks, inspired by a visit to MCAS Yuma a few years ago and after having watched VMFT-401 'Snipers' at Yuma I decided to go for an F-5. The kit is the AFV ROCAF boxing with the platypus nose, so I elected to use Fightertown decals 'Adversary Ghosts' and make one in the colours of VFC-13 'Saints'. Its a lovely kit with very crisp detail. The kit was finished with enamels as Xtracolour make the darker blue and the rest were Humbrol. 28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiwiRho Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Beautifully finished model. Appears a simple subject at first glance but it looks too perfect to be an easy build. Well presented paint work and your decal work is to be admired. Many thanks for sharing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synopsis Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 I have a big bit of a soft spot when it comes to Tigers and this is a fantastic looking example. I have been meaning to pick up one of the AFV kits myself and this is tempting me more and more. Love it, thanks for sharing! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
