Northrop F-5F IRIAF (1/48 AFV Club)

Hi!

Now I want to build Northrop F-5F Iranian Air Force.

My prototype

To implement my idea I will use a kit of AFV Club and also two pilots from Academy.

and LAU-3 from Trumpeter

Firstly, it was necessary to alter the pilot's seat of the Northrop ejection seat into Martin Baker BRQ-7A!

For this purpose, I made a mix of the seats - AFV kit + Revell (Phantom)

Stunning work. I'm doing an F-20B (what-if) and I wish I could do the cockpit half as good as yours.

 

Same here! Not sure how you managed the increments and such on the dials but looking really good.

Stunning detailing! I'm always in awe of how effortless extra details can look when done well.

 

One quick question, how did you mask the clear part in between the crew with all of that extra wiring in place? Your cockpit painting is incredibly clean.

Excellent work, will follow this one closely...

 

Don't mean to be rude or picky but please check your ref though. I believe the F version only has a portside cannon

cheers

 

You're right! F-5F has only one a portside cannon. I know!

At the starboard just a tube of cooling system
