Iroquois Models/Mastercasters won't be trading for a few more years as Jay Laverty was handed a 5 year sentence last year for sexual crimes against children. When they were trading the only reliable way to get the product was to order it from Hannants. There is no vacuum concerning material for the Arrow. Many good books have been published in the last years by such names as Peter Zuuring, Marc Andre Valiquette and Kestrel Publications ps That TV movie has all the accuracy of an episode of Full House

Andrew at Above&Below has taken over many of Jim's sheet artwork and they are part of his line, now Tony

you are better off starting your own thread/question, instead of burying it inside a thread on the F-86H but, my rabbit hole started with this; https://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/235011756-honduran-sabres/ Tony

I think it depends on your intended livery, Canadian ones were YZC with black boxes, Belgian seem to be gray Tony

yes, I would think the differences are 'major' :), and easily spotted between a F-86A and a F-86F but that's me Tony

the biggest difference is the H-stab actuator fairings on the E,F, not present on the 'A'. There are a number of smaller differences such as the stabilizers themselves and locations of pitot tubes and wingtip nav lights (to name a couple ). Tony

just an observation; but, your Sabre seems to have an uncharacteristic nose high stance--perhaps adjusting the height of the the nose leg is in order Tony

I don't use one piece of masking tape, I use several pieces of tape, cut with differing arc radii, using a hole punch or a circle cutter.

do you mean the small radar fiberglass nose piece--super easy to mask and paint

Still there .

There were at least two patterns of camoflage for the Luftwaffe Sabre 6s. Best to find a photo of your subject/time frame. Tony

Remember to scribe in the aileron gap right to the end of the tip Tony

Yes , Luftwaffe Mk6s were grey underneath, called Silbergrau. The used Mk5s they received had the standard RCAF PRU Blue undersides. Tony

exactly, the only kit that gets the pylon location right is the monogram F-86D.

you don't need a 'real photo', the graphic I posted and my explanation is quite clear, the kit uses the outer pylon position of the later F-86F wing, while you need to move then inboard to a position of 53mm from centerline as per the earlier wing.
