1/48 F-5E Patrouille Suisse (AFV Club)


Recommended Posts

Hi!

I finally finished the F-5E from AFV Club in the Livery of the Patrouille Suisse aerobatics team. It is depicted in taxi configuration.

It was abit of a hassle, since the parts of the forward fuselage had quite some distortion (I didn't encounter this problem with my other two F-5E builds.)

Furthermore, the original decals were absolutely crap (the tended to crack), so I had to source some aftermarket decals.

Luckily, I found a sheet from OH Models. This sheet, however, was missing the stencils. I therefore used declas from IPMS Austria.

 

The pilot is taken from a Tamiya F-16. I also used the Quickboost set for the open auxiliary intake. The pitot and gun barrels are from Master Models.
