AFV Club 1/48 F-5F Tiger II


Recommended Posts

Built for the 2016 Special Schemes SIG display at Telford. A lovely kit to build.

 

decals are from Two Bobs , the FOD covers are from Steel Beach, seats from Quickboost, the AIM-9M from the spares box with Airwaves seeker cover. The ACMI pod was scratchbuilt as the kit item was replaced by an updated version in 2011-2012. Wheels are from Royale Resin

These are great kits, just a joy to build. I have a half dozen in the stash. I wish AFV Club would up scale these to 1/32, and with the new 1/32 Furball F-5E Topgun Tiger decals it would sell like hot cakes!

 

Fabulous build, love the subdued weathering. Great job on it.

Did the Quickboost seats fit with out to much trouble if any at all?

Nice job on the camo👍 

Thanks, the Quickboost seats fit with no problems at all.

Now you should search PJ productions, CMK, Aerobonus, etc. for a sitting 1/48 Santa figur!!! Next step: join a model show!

(Btw. you did everything right, also with AM. And so you came out with a really nice family model Tiger!)
