F-5 Tiger II project

[Mikey_W_1980]

Could rename it and call the F5 - the Hello Kitty flying Circus?

I'm liking the paint scheme....just a suggestion, but would be cool seeing an F5 Tiger II dressed up as the fictitious MiG-29 from Top Gun?

Unless it's already been done?

Actually the fictional Mig-28

Applied the decals I purchased from TwoBobs decals. Definite surprise. They released in the water quickly and were so easy to use it wasn't even funny. I have to do a little bit of clean up and paint the lights, and I should be done with the plane itself and then move onto the weapons and drop tank. As with al things, Murphy decided to drop by, and while cleaning up one of the gear doors, the one with the most non-existent connection popped off. : Should be fine though.

Thanks. Sprayed the glosscote last night and will be spraying the dullcote tonight. After that I will be working on the plaque and the then weapons. Hope to have some better quality pictures by then.

...and more or less done! I just need to complete the base I am going to set the model on. That should be completed in a day or two. Will post completed shots of it then. Please let me know what you think.

Looking great! Sweet camo paint!

Thanks. The first mock up was horrendous. After going over some articles and looking over Gary Wickham's build on ScaleSpot.com helped me figure out how to do the mask since this was my first "proper" attempt at 3-tone camo scheme. I am glad you like it. Will not be attempting it again anytime soon though!
