jzsn Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 Tried to be as close as possible with this oob build. Tinted canopy would been nice. Basically all of these 5th gen fighters are boring grey, so I was excited to finally see a less boring paint scheme officially introduced and wanted to build one as soon as one came out. Thank you for looking 52 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deano353 Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 I agree the change of camo looks well. What scale is it? Great looking finish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billn53 Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 Finally! A cool paint scheme for the F-35. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luka Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 Great build! This scheme surely makes the F-35 more interesting to look at. Aggressor camo schemes ftw! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrisj2003 Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 Very nice, it looks attractive in that scheme, and very nicely recreated. Guessing very unlikely to be carrying SDBs in role? Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binbrook87 Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 Very nice indeed. Great work on the build and especially the splinter camo. 👍👍 It looks much much better than the standard finish but even with this the F-35 still doesn't excite me. Shame they didn't add a little colour like a digital blue Flanker scheme?.... that might have finally made me warm to the new Lightning. But no doubt I'll still be adding one to my collection soon as its fast becoming the 'one stop shop' next gen fighter aircraft for the West 🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one thing that will excite me the most is in the Blue Angel paint scheme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amos brierley Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 Lovely new scheme, superb weathering, fantastic choice of weapons. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sky Keg Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 I`m with everyone who has posted. The F-35 looks pretty good in this new aggressor scheme. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CivicSiKL Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 Looks awesome, I hope they keep making more aggressor schemes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exdraken Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 Nice! Is that light grey, or more white in this spliters? Quite a heavy live? weapons loadout for an aggressor jet!! Wow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulaero Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 Very nice and yes, an interesting colour scheme. although al the 'proper' lightnings were all over silver, well at least till the Sqn rivalry kicked in !! Could always dip the canopy in Tamiya smoke, X19 will tint it nicely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightningboy2000 Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 I have to say that's one of the best F-35's I've seen painted up. I'm generally averse to models of any version of the F-35 due to the unrealistic five inch thick scale thickness RAM tapes, but your very effective & well painted aggressor scheme hides them very well. Hope you don't mind me saying, but I'd agree with paulaero about giving the canopy a light tint. Is it possible to mask it off & give light going over? Sorry just sayin..😉 Apart from that it's superb! Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
