Royster Posted April 4, 2010 Author Share Posted April 4, 2010 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! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royster Posted April 19, 2010 Author Share Posted April 19, 2010 (edited) 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 sorry for pic quality my Sony Ericsson W880i phone is getting on a bit, as couldn't find my DSC Oh and it's nowhere near as nice as the pics suggest it is!!!! @BlackLight: Sorry I don't know..

sartois66 Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Hey Royster, that's looking great! Looks like some of us were lucky enough to choose a reasonable kit with a good selection of paints for this build! Hats off to Airfix for this one I think.

Royster Posted April 26, 2010 Author Share Posted April 26, 2010 Thanks chaps.. It is a nice kit indeed Well.. It's all done, pics will be up tomorrow eve... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royster Posted April 27, 2010 Author Share Posted April 27, 2010 (edited) 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!

sartois66 Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Good to see another finished F-5 Royster! You've done a cracking job there. Love pic no.2, looks like early morning on the ramp ready for the first sortie of the day! Cheers Kirk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fraxinus Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 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!! ) 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royster Posted April 28, 2010 Author Share Posted April 28, 2010 (edited) Thanks chaps.. Good one Kirk! I found out that the sun rays were actually shining off a finger print on my camera!
