1/72 Academy F-86F

--------------------

 

This must have been one of my quickest builds ever. This very nice 1/72 Academy F-86F was largely constructed straight from the box, only replacing the kit cockpit with a resin/PE set from CMK – a nicely detailed set that fits the Academy kit quite good.

The kit came together easily, without any major fit problems. As I wanted something different than the BMF type Sabres, I used decals from Cutting Edge for this overall faded grey machine from the Royal Saudi Arabian Airforce. 

 

 

Maintenance and other stencils are the kit's decals. I used ModelMaster enamels for the this scheme. Enjoy the pictures!

 

Regards,

Patrick
