Rodney Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 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.

Mstor Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 Very nice. It is an intriguing aircraft. Looks kind of like a cross between an F-16 and an F-18 but with those new type of intakes (I forget the name of them). Plus I like the Pakistani camo schemes. Well done Sir!

Captain Mark Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Damn that came up REALLY nice! I can certainly see elements of an F-16 in that aircraft, and perhaps an FA-18 too... 🤔 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ChernayaAkula Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Nice build. Don't see JF-17s too often. A pity, really, as it's a pretty neat design. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
