Fisher F9F Twogar done

[JohnB]

All done with this one. I have to say it was not a easy build with several problems with fit and warped parts. Pretty much normal for a short run resin kit. Better than some, worse than others. I painted it with Tamiya Gloss White, Testor's Dark Gull Gray and my own "mix" for the International Orange (my bottle of IO had dried up).  Decals are kit decals and some from my decal stash. I hope y'all like it.

Nicely done!  Not easy with those colors I'm sure.

Thanks Mike. Not a slam dunk for sure with lots of masking, etc. I'm glad to have it done!

John

You out did yourself on the Twogar for sure - both in speed and what a finish ... absolutely a gem and perfect paint work.

Really nice model John. Great to see it finished. Awesome finish. The International Orange panels just stand out so nicely on the white.

VERY nice Twogar, John. 
the more I see your builds, the more I am getting convinced to let go my procrastinating AMS philosophy… well, almost 😉

Not one of those planes I get excited about but you sure laid down a Nice Finish John!

Outfrigginstanding John!  Knocked this one out of the park.  That would look great parked next to my GSB Cougar.  Now I gotta keep my eyes open if a kit comes up for sale somewhere sometime….

Thank you Kevin. It really isn't one of my favorites either but I figured since I already had the kit I should go on and build it.

John,  Super work and a very cool build.  The cockpit is so clean and perfect - nicely done.  I don't envy you the masking for that paint - wow!!  Another Beautiful build of yours!
