CanDid Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Hi, Recently finished my RCAF Canadair Sabre from 427 Sqdn. I used the Academy F-86F-30 kit OOB except for the Aires seat and True Details wheels. The Leading Edge decals turns it into a Hard Wing F-86-30 style from Zweibrücken, Germany in 1957. The tail markings is from the Weapons Meet Cazaux, France. Unfortunately the decals had a tendency of silvering. Painted with Mr.Paint and weathered with Ammo of Mig products. Thanks for looking //Fred 37 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Edmundson Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 (edited) Nice work. The serial number of 23527 makes this aircraft a Mk6, which did come from the factory with a hard edge wing. Great to see a nice clean Sabre build, well done. Cheers, Tony Edited August 12, 2018 by Tony Edmundson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max Headroom Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Lovely Sabre and it looks nice in that scheme. I built one a few years ago and it just fell together (gun hatches excepted). How did you prevent it being a tail sitter? Trevor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally think Revell kits are really worth the money. I have previously build their F-86D. I used a led clay product from Uschi van der Rosten called Three Green. It conforms well into the small spaces around the intake. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
