Barzin Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 (edited) Hi dear folks This is my very first effort of bulding a model of F-5 from AFV CLUB.As many of you know the kit is superb and detail is brilliant. I used Martin-Baker IRQ-7A ejection seat that comes with AFV CLUB Saeqeh kit.(Iranian version of F-5E) Colors are mixture of CSI Creos Mr. HOBBY , Mr. COLOR and AKAN paints. Sorry for bad quality photos, I haven’t provided myself a photo booth yet! Edited April 6, 2019 by Barzin 72 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roman Schilhart Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 That's a pretty cool looking Tiger. The camo scheme is very attractive. You've done a great job on the surface painting, I really like the weathering/shading along the panel lines. Hope to see more model kits of yours on these pages soon. Best greetings from Vienna!

Vultures1 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Very cool Tiger and a very nicely executed scheme - well done! Nothing to apologise for with the quality of the photos either - the black and white shots are very atmospheric 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PZL104 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Wow, that's an extremely nice F-5, plus a terrific camo and very realistic weathering. Very impressive! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nachtwulf Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Very nice work! I couldn't take my eyes off of the nose of the aircraft the finish and weathering is so good! There is only one small problem That I feel compelled to point out.............IT"S NOT ON MY SHELF!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baldy Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Beautifully built and finished F-5E. Convincing weathering/fading. Maybe the brown is a little dark but it may be due to the lighting. This has made me want to build my AFV F-5E. I also love the ramp photograph - so many Tigers! It is nice to see someone in Iran modelling. Looking forward to seeing more. Cheers Malcolm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kampartiger Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 (edited) A stunning looking Tiger,great weathering and so is your air brushing!Though it has been in the IRIAF service for decades,it's still contributing a sterling service to Iran.

Tiger331 Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Barzin, Great model of a great aircraft.......It is so nice to see the F-5 in one of the more esoteric colour schemes worn and you have done a great job with the subtle weathering etc. I just hope my ongoing IRIAF F-14A Tomcat looks half as good when it is finally finished. It is also great to see Iran on the modelling map too and I look forward to seeing more of your work in due course. I cannot remember Iran since I lived there between the ages of 2-4 years but my family have many photos of their happy time in Tabriz and it looks like a beautiful place !.

Hi wow It’s really nice to hear that you have been to Iran! And thanks for your response. Tabriz is a great city with nice people and also one of the main F-5 airbase in Iran. Can't wait to see the legendary F-14A Tomcat in it’s Iranian dress coming out of your modeling room! For sure it’ll be one of the best💪🏻💪🏻 Cheers Barzin Edited April 15, 2019 by Barzin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DennisTheBear Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 (edited) @Barzin that is a really nicely done F-5E! Not a criticism but panel lines are a little too dark for my taste. Having said that I haven't seen an Iranian F-5 close up (or ever for that matter). Overall it is an outstanding build!!
