With everything going on, I was looking for a quick build.  The Trumpeter JF-17 seemed like a good kit and got it down.  For some reason, the I find the shape of this aircraft interesting.  Also, I got inspiration from Aigore in this thread http://www.arcforums.com/forums/air/index.php?/topic/254336-jf-17-thunder/

 

 

The kit is ok.  You have to test fit most pieces and do clean up on the parts.  My intent was to do a closed canopy but it'd did fit well enough to go that route.  So, last minute change.  I used Caracal decals.   

 

Thanks,

Rodney

 

Nice. I really hope this sheet is re-printed as I missed out on it.

It is a nice sheet.  I haven't seen any for sale on the usual sites either.

if you have any specific questions just ask!!  Lots of putty and sanding needed around the nose...test fit a bunch before glue, and the canopy sucks!!  I hate vacuform.
