Fozzy Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 (edited) Hi everyone Although I am not new to the forums here..... I don't often dabble in building kits as usually I scratch build my models. However due to lock down and the fact that I can't travel home to my workshop I decided to have a go at a kit. The first thing I had to do was get some basic tools together ..plus paints ,brushes glue etc as I don't have anything here in UK. Then permission was obtained from my wife to use her lounge table with some news papers adorned in case of accidents! I then searched on good old Amazon for a kit and found a nice little 1:72 F-86F Sabre by Hobbyboss for under a tenner!.. I have never built anything from this company but thought I'd give it a go! I'm glad I did!......I totally forgot the shear pleasure of building a simple kit....I also forgot that I didn't have all my tools and especially my airbrush set up!.....I looked at the tins of Humbrol paints and the hairy brushes with dread!....cannot remember the last time I hand painted a model so Kudos to all you guys out there who can manage it!....not easy! Anyway.....I built this straight from the box....no added detail ....using Humbrol paints with a brush. ....what a great little kit! Here is the completed model on a makeshift cardboard base that Amazon sent the kit in!! Looks like I will be here in UK for quite a while so looking forward to my next kit! Cheers for looking in Fozzy Edited February 18, 2021 by Fozzy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
