Spitfire31 2,437 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 A great rendition of the very competent AJSF 37 from our friends at F 21 wing in the far north of Sweden! 'Akktu Stakki' means 'Lone Wolf' in the sapmi (same) language – a fitting name for photo recce expert. Excellent modelling. Kind regards, Joachim 1 Link to post Share on other sites

But as the grey on different decal sheets are all over the place it is impossible to know how to avoid this. One don't know before the decals goes on and then it is to late. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
