Knock! .. Knock! : Roll: it's me again!


Swego czasu na forum wystawiałem szwedzką maszynę a mianowicie Saab Draken.
Aby było do pary postanowiłem sklecić drugą z serii rur .która dość długo leżakowała a to za sprawą malowania :cry: .Po prostu jest tak upierdliwe że nie bardzo chciało mi się do tego zabierać .No ale wreszcie lody zostały przełamane i powstał ten "twór" o wdzięcznej polskiej nazwie "kaczka czernica " bo to właśnie znaczy VIGGEN.

Model jest dość stary tak że i niezbyt piękny ,no ale nie ma alternatywy .
Zrobiłem go prosto z pudla bez żadnych specjalnych przeróbek.W ten sposób chciałem pokazać młodym adeptom modelarstwa ze nawet w tej postaci zrobiony model i pomalowany jako tako nie jest zbyt odstraszający.
Z tym "prosto z pudla nie do końca było tak jak pisze ,bo wstawiłem żywiczny kokpit z Vectora
Który notabene jest zalecany ,ze względu na bardzo ubogie wnętrze .No i jeszcze poszperałem przy podwoziu ,dodając dodatkowe siłowniki i przewody hamulcowe

That's a tricky camouflage pattern. How'd you do it?

Lovely work on that splinter camouflage. I assume you started with the bright green overall and then spent some weeks using post-it masks colour by colour?

I subscribe Ben's statement...you've done a wonderfull job with a kit that must be 30 years old or so

Cheers

Your build of a rather old kit looks great. Just goes to prove that age isn't always a bad thing. But your camo paint scheme is just top shelf. Outstanding is an understatement.
