A great looking model so far  
I think it look is so close to a F-100 Super Sabre with a slightly overweight.

All the best from Jesper.

Hi Tim,

I think the reason why you can see the box art and not the other build images is because the box top image is on the ATF domain. The others are from my 'Picturetrail' account and maybe your work PC is locked against such image hosting sites.

Cheers!


I can confirm that.  As a government employee* my masters have decided that for whatever reason "picturerail" is a blocked site.  (Photobucket is good to view though).  

Great looking kit!  I just love the paintjob.  Well done!

Thanks for the comments!

All done.









Considering the decals have to be over 30 years old on this kit they were superb, just how Airfix decals used to be. They wern't too glossy, they were in register and there was almost no silvering.


Cheers!

Beautiful model well done.

Striking resemblance to a Hunter.

The more I look at this model the more I like it. The cammo scheme is particularly well done!

Great job on the paintwork - nice clear lines all round. This seems to be another of the Airfix raised panel lines kits that can fustrate a clean finish - I sometimes wonder what possesses any manufacturer to make kits with raised lines when they can get so many other details so right. Anyway, this one still looks great.

Great job and great camouflage job.  

It does have the look of an F100 about it.
