Administrators Clunkmeister Posted August 29, 2021 Administrators Posted August 29, 2021 My order is 10722. I’ve been looking forward to this for a long, long time. Anyone else getting a Viggen? ordering from these guys takes patience, because you need to keep watch on your email. You reserve months in advance, then preorder for a discount. If you’re like me and get sidetracked, you can miss the 30 day preorder discount period. From the limited number of pics up online, this kit looks stunning 5
mark31 Posted August 29, 2021 Posted August 29, 2021 im also waiting my order nr is10548 and yes it whas dificult but we are getting there 4
Kaireckstadt Posted August 29, 2021 Posted August 29, 2021 I have reserved one in the second lot of production. Will place the order with a 20% discount (then 182 $) on Monday. I already bought masks for the splinter-camo from DN Masks and all necessary colors from AK. Can‘t wait to get it on my bench. Will start it immediately when I get it. 7

Peterpools Posted August 29, 2021 Posted August 29, 2021 Just placed my order for the Viggen ad am going to order a set of masks from DN in a few days. I've never seen so many modelers say and then actually purchase the kit as I read other board looking for a build thread, which I haven't been able to find. I also had another post I started about the Jetmads' Viggen and asked about glue types and preferences. Smitty suggested CCA and epoxy and Hubert suggest HPH's AFAIK two part epoxy. Not sure which way to go. The only resin kit I've ever built was F the Fisher's Sea Fury and it's the center piece of my collection - 100% assembled with CCA. Any suggestions? Keep 'em comin Peter 4
mark31 Posted August 29, 2021 Posted August 29, 2021 i think its early for build thread its just out. but there will be build and some going to collectors. I hope to get this week my email for shipping. When here i will post the pics Mark 2

Administrators Clunkmeister Posted August 29, 2021 Author Administrators Posted August 29, 2021 Yeah, this may be an all hands on deck bench clearer. I’m finishing up three Mustangs and a Buffalo as we speak, so…. I ordered the DM Models splinter masks as well. I thought I’d be unique, but great minds think alike. We’ll have a squadron of multi green Viggens. 4 2
BlrwestSiR Posted August 30, 2021 Posted August 30, 2021 Anyone going to do one of the other schemes? I know the Fields and Meadows is the default but it can't be the only paint job. Of course, once I found out I was getting a Viggen I ordered the mask set. Carl 2
Peterpools Posted August 30, 2021 Posted August 30, 2021 Carl I thought the same and now that I have my order number, can’t see any other scheme to do. Keep ‘em comin Peter 4
Administrators Clunkmeister Posted August 30, 2021 Author Administrators Posted August 30, 2021 They did serve in a solid grey as well. But when someone thinks Viggen, it’s always that splinter scheme that comes to mind. 4
smitty44 Posted August 30, 2021 Posted August 30, 2021 I am vehemently opposed to doing one to same as everone else. 3 2

Peterpools Posted August 30, 2021 Posted August 30, 2021 Ordered the DN mask set and also the HPH Two Pack Resin Epoxy (thanks Hubert). I purchased two sets of the resin epoxy as I'm hoping to buy the Ouregon, Phantom and the B-47( 1/48 scale which has me doing cartwheels) when they become available. Looks like 1/32 scale is exploding and then there are the SB Phantoms - there goes my modeling money for a long while. Keep 'em comin Peter 4
MARU 5137 Posted September 12, 2021 Posted September 12, 2021 Heres a build from Aigore(with compliments) from ARC he just began: http://www.arcforums.com/forums/air/index.php?/topic/318474-saab-ja37-viggen-jetmads-132/&tab=comments#comment-3056062 1
Administrators Clunkmeister Posted September 13, 2021 Author Administrators Posted September 13, 2021 Thanks for that, Maru. Aigore looks like he has his hands full, and it also looks like JetMads customer service is also up to the task. I’m surprised with the instrument panel’s soft detail. I wonder if that was just a one off booboo or will it be across the entire kit fun. 3
Bomber_County Posted September 13, 2021 Posted September 13, 2021 Never worked with 3D printed parts but these do look a little delicate in places. There is some great detail but I’d be scared of breaking a lot of the components…….looking forward to a WIP on this one….. 1
