nontas_337 Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Hello to all, This model was started in September of 2019 after a 2 year hiatus of modelling. It was started as a good way to return to full scale modelling. My thought was to build a panther different that the usual blue ones. Hasegawa had out of the box the decals for the Advanced Training Unit 206 (ATY-206), so I started it immediately. The model now is waiting for a nice opportunity to spray the white and the red. To be continued... Nontas Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tailspin Turtle Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 I am very impressed Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RichB63 Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 (edited) Looking good! And you are going with a colorful markings option. I remember when this kit, along with its Cougar stablemate, arrived on the scene 40 plus years ago. Back then, Hasegawa was arguably the "Tamiya" of kit manufacturers, renowned for their innovation, fit and accuracy. Edited April 15, 2021 by RichB63 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ST0RM Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Another excellent build up and detailing of an old kit. Great work! The scratchbuilt details are impressive. -Jeff Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nontas_337 Posted April 20, 2021 Author Share Posted April 20, 2021 Thank you all for your nice words!! RichB63 although the kit is fairly old, the accuracy and the fitting is very nice!! I have also the HobbyBoss one for the future. Regards, Nontas Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GeneK Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 Have you finished this great build, Nontas? Gene K Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nontas_337 Posted November 15, 2021 Author Share Posted November 15, 2021 Nope....I have painted the red stripes but, unfortunately I had some issues with unmasking some areas, I tried to smooth them for extra painting, but the mojo was lost. I have put it to my AMARC area (a box with some other unfinished projects), waiting for recovery. I hope soon. Nontas Quote Link to post Share on other sites

K5054NZ Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 I hope you can get back into it as it's a stunningly-detailed model - I had to keep reminding myself it's a 1/72 kit, especially after seeing the wing fold detail. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
