Martinnfb Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 The Soviet aggressor theme is bit outdated, but gloss black suits her well. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmperorKai Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 Sweet- Glad to see your back in the saddle on this. It's one thing to build a kit where every thing goes according to plan, but it takes real kung-fu to recover from disasters. Nicely done Jean Claude Von Ernie!

Administrators Clunkmeister Posted December 27, 2018 Author Administrators Share Posted December 27, 2018 Yeah it certainly had a high pucker factor for a bit. And all of my own making, too 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Clunkmeister Posted December 29, 2018 Author Administrators Share Posted December 29, 2018 I’m really liking this little gem. I’ve never been a modern jet guy at all, but Cold War stuff lights my fire, and nothing says Cold War aggressor more than an F-5. So far, the only real serious pucker points have been self induced, like when I melted the tail end of the model. Other than that, a nice, mostly stress free build. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Clunkmeister Posted December 29, 2018 Author Administrators Share Posted December 29, 2018 Just a quick scan shows a few areas that still need a bit of work. There’s been some some Hasegawa-like sink marks in places, and that join on the fin confounds me. But all in all, not so bad. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz It works, believe me. Like a light came on for me. But Gaz, when I hang around the likes of y’all, I have no choice but to either improve or be left in the dust. You guys humble me. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlrwestSiR Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Really looks good there Ernie. Especially in the black. I came so close to pulling the trigger on one last night. But I decided I'd best make some room on the bench first. And the stash in case the bench clearing fails. Carl 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
