BAKTo me, the vertical tail looks too tall and skinny, and the reverse rake on the large drop tank pylon looks too severe. Just my reaction.

RuiI'm no expert but I also agree that the tail looks a bit tall and skinny. Not sure about the drop tank pylon. And, what's the storey with the cloudy frosted canopy 😁

KanyikoFrom what I can see, the vertical tail mounted on the model is the 'tall tail' which was fitted to later F-84Fs. From what I read, the 'short tail' was fitted to the Republic-built blocks up to the F-84F-45-RE and the General Motors-built blocks up to the F-84F-40-GK; the 'tall tail' (which added 28 cm to the vertical tail) appeared on the Republic F-84F-46-RE to F-84F-81-RE and the General Motors F-84F-41-GK to F-84F-51-GK.
I'm especially pleased to see this kit finally has a lot of features preceding models (Airfix, Italeri, PJ Productions and Sword) often failed to include: the HVAR rockets; and especially the Mark 7 bomb and its pylon.

TomYes, the aft fuselage diameter is slightly too small and the chord of both fins (long and short fin) a bit too narrow on top, this makes it look skinny at the rear. AZ is here on the thick side, so the difference is feeled quite doubled

Lukas .I photographed the test frames at the Pantherscup exhibition in Prague. We have something to look forward to.
