Mr Matt Foley Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 I'm interested in hearing about the accuracy of this kit. Granted there is not much out there to go by, but it does hold some interest for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Matt Foley Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 Mike's review on Cybermodeler is a great start. We need others to try to check the nuances as far as shape etc. I can certainly see aftermarket burner can, cockpit, wheel wells and weapons bay as well. I would imagine that would push the cost closer the $250-300 US to build a well detailed sample. I would also hope that we see some decals from operational F-35's (Hill AFB?).

Kind similar to the real cost of the plane? :-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Eribuz87 Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Id have to post pics when i get home. Im getting back into building models and scratch building. I'm hoping to get some my scratch built stuff i constructed from drawings evaluated, that I hope to see turned into kits some of them are of Rq-3a Darkstar, Mcdonnell Douglas/Boing Bird of Prey and Northrop Tacit blue Technology Demonstrators. Im looking at another party to construct the details on computer, stuff with finer details. Scales wi be both 1/48 and 1/32. Havent started on th larger ones yet. Just the 1/48 patterns. There are picturesof these on the net floating. I had another profile. Forgot passwords. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MR BLUE Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 I got mine but the whole top fuselage was cracked. It was odd because it was packed very well and the outer box had no signs of impact. anyway, other than that, the kit itself seems to be very nice. and will be very impressive build up. first thing I noticed is that the ram tape representation is underdone, meaning, alot of the detail was not modeled into the surface. the pe companies will jump on this for sure. the cockpit is pretty nice for an italeri product, and there was alot of detail in the missile bays. cant speak on accuracy yet, but at first glance, It is much better than I expected.
