Think I’m done with the F3 - not going to put the tanks on as they are from the Airfix kit and don’t really sit/connect correctly ....

 

will get some pics done

Wow!

Great and nice load out!

What is the problem with the tanks?

 

 

Thanks

 

The tanks are from the Airfix F3 and have a big groove in the top, that is slightly wider than the pylon - the mating surface are is not big either, so likely to just fall off, even with CA glue...

Will probably just keep for whenever I am brave enough to build that Airfix kit ....Interceptors build?! maybe not 🤪

Well done for finishing, Looks great with the clean swept wings. You just need a nice acrylic stand now to finish it off. 

 

For the tanks you can fill the slot with Milliput and maybe use a brass rod/pin to connect to the pylons. I usually use a brass pin anyway and these slots just help to center the drill!
