The
kit is the most memorable and the only Viggen (flash) in 1:48. I
spent more than two years in the construction (of course
there's
not much time when a new baby has born at the same time I decided to start this
project.... yes bad timing). This bird was my passion I tell to my father this plane is looks as
Mirage on steroids. When
my father brought home some magazines like air combat or
aviation issues in those days was the only contact with new
jets fighters in my town. And now I share some pics of my bird.
I
rescibred the entire plane and used the following aftermarket items; Cockpit-Set from
Neomega for the Cockpit, the Resin Nose, the intakes from Two Mikes Models.
The rest was OOB with a lot of scratchbuilding including the wheel wells and
landing gear. After burner, the position lights, the
collision beacon was vacuformed. The Splinter-Camo was realized per airbrush and
masking with 3m blue Tape, and the decals was a gif from my good
friend Gerardo Casillas, well crafted modeller.
Greetings from
Monterrey Mexico and Viva Mexico .
Enrique Cardenas
