Well,
this one took some time to get finished as it was (as usual) built in parallel
with other models. More or less about two years…
The
main point of interest is the modification on the wings. Yes, it is the E
variant, “Modified” also in scale. In other words I did start with the F-86E
kit and not with the (more appropriate) F-86F model kit… But I was rewarded
with a pair of spare slats for a future F-86D project!
Part
of the modification was also the V-shaped windshield.

The
model was brush-painted with Citadel acrylics for the metal look, Humbrol red
gloss enamel and Humbrol acrylic black.
Wash
was done with acrylic black, water and soap.
Some
scratch building in the cockpit was also part of the joy…
Feel
free to send me your comments!
