F-86D 'Sabre Knights'


Recommended Posts

Kit only has a pair of home copied slats, a copy of the Airfix P-80 nose wheel, some tape seat belts and some wiring used for the ejection handles; added.

NMF is Humbrol Metal-Cote, Testor's square bottle was used for the Red/Yellow stripes and the nose/tires are Testor's rubber. Decals are MicroScale with the 'Sabre Knights' script added from my printer on Testors decal paper.

This was one of my first attempts at the use of Tamiya Smoke for shading effect; I feel I could have been a bit more subtle in places.

The actual aircraft exists and sits in the North East Aircraft Museum in Sunderland, England(my birth place)
