Fulcrum@ Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 hello ! @ DrakeĀ the SH Viggen is not a SH molds, it's a Tarangus one, a short run product. I think the next SH Mirage III will look like their Mirage F1, easy to build... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may be wrong, and I can't find anything to back me up at the moment, but Tarangus does not have their own facilities to either make molds or inject kits, so they are sourced to other companies, like Special Hobby in the case of the various Viggen; very much like their collaborations with Azur-Frrom. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure SH owns the Viggen moulds, even though that particular kit was a collaboration with Tarangus. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cvrle Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 I would not call the SH/Tarangus Viggen a short-run kit. It is moulded veryĀ much in line with their Mirage F.1, Gnats and he-162 to name a few. Ā The Tarangus J29F and J32 are short run kits, I'm guessing made by Sword (the sprues and plastic are very reminiscent of Sword kits, and that is what I'm basing my assumption on) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fukuryu Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 What constitutes an "attractive colour scheme" is indeed a highly subjective matter; the current selection is already very attractive to meĀ given my interests.Ā 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teeradej Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 Panel lines looks very fine. Much finer than their previous Mirage F.1. Anyway nothing wrong on the F.1 kit and I want this new CJ kit to accompany my SH F.1 in the stash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ā The panel lines are looking good, I'm also really very pleased they avoided the temptation to cover it in divots, panel lines exist on real aircraft, massive divots where rivets go don't, in fact the holes one of the Riggers were plugging with rivets on an aircraft at work today wouldn't even show up in that scale. Ā I'm very pleased with what I see, can I have mine now please? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hook Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 The sprue gate located at the cutout for the nav lights on the upper wings (by the looks of it) is a nifty idea.
