1:72 Trumpeter J-10S Firebird China


Recommended Posts

The 1:72 scale Trumpeter kit of the Chinese J-10 built in Chinese markings. This is the J-10S two seater.

 

Build wise, the only thing that didn't quite fit was the wing to fuselage join. Fuselage had to be sanded back a bit to blend it in.

 

Wasn't sure what the two seater carried missile wise, so kept this one fairly clean, apart from the centerline tank. I usually like aircraft to be a bit ,ore loaded up.

 

Overall colour is Model Master 1721 grey.

 

Kit decals were generally ok, but since the markings on the underside of the wing have to go over the flap fairlings, took a while to get them to conform to the shape and I broke one decal.
