Haha yep just seen your thread! I've nearly got all principal construction complete ready to start the fun disrupted paint scheme. But will get some phots soon.

@Paul I was quite surprised that was quite so many pieces!

Thanks all.

Sorry for delay but only just had some time to progress some more, hope you like.

Camo scheme is freehand painted without any tape

All done. Took advantage of some early morning sunshine. Maybe too much advantage....

Loved the GB Experience but not so much the build. But thats not to say the kit was bad, infact it was pretty good and some great paints, brushes and glue all in! Well done Airfix!

Loving these F-5s... I'm going to have to get me one!

these F5-E's are great I have gone and purchased one in case I get modellers block again! no time to build it for May2nd...unfortunatly work/car MOT & family stuff getting in the way (family stuff ok ...especially if 'high command 'accidently should read this!! :undecided: ) The 6 paints (which seem to be better pigments...probably though you are all just better painters!!) & later mouldings than the F5-A seem to produce a very fine model within the restrictions of the build..........super stuff

Thanks chaps..

Good one Kirk! I found out that the sun rays were actually shining off a finger print on my camera! Hence the fog effect..
