Looking really good Andrew Gordon

this group build just happens to catch me on a tiger meet fade. I have been building tigermeet aircraft for just over a year Yes I do work, but have some issues that the modelling helps with Gordon

Hi Arnaud, this is the Tamiya one (Kit number 60701) The kit is pretty basic after building this one and the Hobby Boss kits. I think I will stick to Hasegawa or Revell kits. where I am I can get the Revell kit at a competitive price and the quality is my opinion is much better Gordon

here is my next planned build

4 more done, brings my overall Tiger marking collection to 30

Calling these 4 done. decals on two of the Turkish ones fought me all the way and not completely happy with results. Also the color on the drop tanks took a lot of different tries to get the color I was happy with. I have also included some pics with some other tiger schemes I had already finished last year. This brings total of 30 different schemes I have completed in Tiger markings

As far as I know they are. I just got the decals from them in Feb. Here is the contact info I have info@modelcz.cz Petr Dorda Model-CZ Dvorákova 1633, 735 06 Karviná 6 tel/fax : 00 420 596 314 384 GSM : 00 420 603 724 524 email : info@modelcz.cz http://www.modelcz.cz http://www.d-comp.cz http://www.vypocetni-technika.cz

Made some progress over the last few days. Main paint colors on but need to do some touch ups. The two on left are the Hobby Boss. The dual is the Hasegawa and the other single is Tamiya Hobby Boss the top two 2 sets of the drop tanks. Still trying to figure out the color of other two Turkish sets of drop tanks. They are a shade of orange. Hobby boss kits Hasegawa and Tamiya

Hi there, yes they are also available in 48th. If you go to the Model-cz website http://www.modelcz.cz/shop_sady.html They are pretty quick to respond. Also there are the other sets that I used to build the other 3 Gripens here on this Group build http://www.arcforums.com/forums/air/index.php?showtopic=283101 Gordon

Hi Thadeus, the HB kit is pretty basic. Only good thing is upper fuselage and wings are all one piece. Out of all the kits of the F-16 I have built so far I have found the Revell kits to be the best. Also for me in Canada they are cheaper and more available. re the bugs I do have some decals for a Swiss aircraft and a some Spanish ones so may look at working on these next. I have started the kits and have abandoned the Mister Kit as the fit was so bad, minimal detail and the flash was terrible. So I have decided to use a Tamiya kit instead for the build. will post some progress pics i

Thanks I was following the Revell instructions I guess better try to find some more ref pics. What color did you use for tail rotor blades as it shows the same turquoise interior green

Nice looking bug. I have decals for this one a few other Spanish bugs might have to dig out of my stash Gordon

Have been impressed so far lots of detail. Each engine comprises of 10 pieces and lots of detail in the transmission area as well. Big decision panels open or closed

Looks really great Andrew

Hi this next builds 3 will be Turkish Air Force using Babibi decals and a Portuguese one using Model Maker decals

Hey Andrew looking good. I have the same fear each time I take the masks off. Out of interest where did you get the organizers for your bench Gordon

I am hoping can get the printscale decals (http://www.printscale.org/product_426.html) prior to end of the group build if not will use kit decals

Here is my next planned build

Hi Mike I ordered them directly from the manufacturer, I found Petr easy to deal with and decals arrived swiftly. Challenge is site is not translated but once I selected decals I wanted got the total for decals and shipping quickly and paid via paypal. Here is there web site www.modelcz.cz Gordon

Calling this one done, more pics in build thread
