Lightningboy2000 Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 That's quite a time jump! You put Admiral Picard to shame! I'm sure I've got a Thunderstreak thread from a few years ago on here as well as a Saab jet trainer from about seven years to revive, if I can find it! Interesting to see a reconnaissance Sabre with those cumbersome lumps! Mart 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite surprised that you're giving them thought as they're not 'digital' or 'Tiger Meet'... After a quick message to @Sabrejet, I was able to move on... Camera blisters added to underside. Resin seat (should please @Terry1954) painted and fitted, now ready to fit the canopy. Stuart 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that's better, back to something we all like! Glad to see you back on this build Stuart, only a two year gap. Resurrecting old builds could become fashionable.........................

Stuart I do surprise some people, sometimes! Even myself occasionally! Got to put the stripes & Tetris squares back in the box sometimes to preserve what sanity I do have. Today I was even daydreaming about building that big Airfix Bentley, or a Tamiya motorbike after seeing Rod's Ducati! Excellent work with this Sabre, which resin seat is that? Got to start stocking up on resin ejection seats & cockpits. Oh by the way, the other kit build I need to revive was that Marivox Saab 105, which actually has a Tiger Meet scheme on it! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuart HMS Belfast? Oh yes that kettle of fish & the family goings on related to that. Was put off doing it after some false family revelations. One day it will get revived. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Courageous Posted April 27, 2022 Author Share Posted April 27, 2022 All parts primed and now waits for paint but I need to get it first. Stuart 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Courageous Posted May 2, 2022 Author Share Posted May 2, 2022 Other things taking my time... But I've managed to get the Tamiya AS12 applied overall, interior green in the wheel wells and Citadel Leadbelcher ( a gun metal) applied at the hot end.

Courageous Posted May 3, 2022 Author Share Posted May 3, 2022 Decals were really nice and now on. Not far to go and that'll be another one off the shelf. Stuart 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With so many to build, you can't hang around. Any ways... All the sticky-outy bits are on. Almost forgot about the small antenna on nose and wing lights but now the job is done.
