stevej60 Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Hi folk's,couple of weeks ago I heard the words we all dread,"Dad you got a model I could build"? My youngest with most of his Uni work done wanted something to do so out came the Hobbyboss F-5 for his first effort and not a bad one for a novice brush painted too,he ordered more kits and is working on Special Hobbies Mystere at the moment but Trumpeters Nanchang A-5 turned out a beauty and an aircraft i had not seen much of again brush painted probably a passing phase but nice to see new modellers having a go. 39 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pantherhawk27263 Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 Nice work on two of my favorite aircraft. I have both of those in my stash and I might just make my Nanchang for the next build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winenut Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 Steve! Can you share with me the secret of how to successfully brainwash anyone under 50 years old to get into the hobby of playing with plastic sprues, glue, paint and decals!???? You must have some divine insight Or was it just the sheer weight and volume of kits and builds in the Stevej60 household that life just naturally took it's course??? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bianfuxia Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 Excellent work and a nice pairing - ROC F-5 and a PRC Nanchang I have to say, his Nanchang is better assembled than all the real ones I've seen.... Welcome to the hobby, friend! Looking forward to your next builds. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire31 Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 Welcome to the new talent! The F-5 camo is really good, especially considering it's a hairy stick job! And both builds look very well assembled, too. Hope to see more soon. Kind regards, Joachim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
