I'm impressed. Of course any NMF does that.

Beautiful, beautiful build of a great looking aircraft! I always liked the looks of the Sabredog. I need one in 1/72 scale for myself. Again, great work! Russell

Outstanding job! I actually have a Sabre on my workbench now. Either it or a MiG-15 (also on my bench) will be my first NMF model--I love the look but have alway been too intimidated! What products/techniques did you use and what advice can you give a NMF noob?

F-86D Sabre Dog was built OOB and a mixture of Revell Aqua and Tamiya paints were used and as it goes it was my first NMF. I used several layers of Klear (future) applied lightly to obtain the finish I wanted .The only real advice I can give is not to be intimidated and give it a go.
Good luck hope your builds turn out ok.
