Meteor FR MK.9 MPM 1/72 (2002 edition) Israeli Air Force


Recommended Posts

Gloster Meteor FR MK.9 MPM 1/72 (2002 edition).

117 Sqn. First Jet Israeli Defence Forces Air Force Ramat David 1955. At 1.9.55 Capt. Aharon Yoeli intercepted and shoot down two Egyptian DH Vampire.

I started this build ca. 2002 with CMK resin parts, was disappointed from the quality and put it back to storage. Some weeks ago, I decided to finish it. Alfred Riedel helped me with decals from the new Special Hobby edition of this kit, so we are...
Aftermarket parts from CMK: engine set  :pleur4: cockpit, undercarriage set :rougefaché: 
pitot from MASTER :shock: .

Fantastic job and stunning finish.

Your work is very inspiring.

I wonder if you could explain how did you do all the cables, which material did you use, if you glued and painted after finishing the cockpit and how did you achieve those curves.

Thank you very much for your kind words.
Cockpit is set without any changes from CMK, including cable. In the case of the engine it is tin wires that I painted.
