Saab J-21A

Scale:
1:72
Status:
Completed
Started:
January 12, 2012
Completed:
August 29, 2012

First off - I'm kind of a fan of two tails aircrafts, so when I came across this one, decision was a no-brainer. And on the ther hand, I never had built any Special Hobby kit before. So this was also an opportunity to test this Czech manufacturer.

This was to be the last kit painted by brush, but it turned out to be the first airbrushed (still learning!)

So far, only canopy left to go and for the build as a whole I must say I'm surprised - parts fit nicely and the quality is very good.

The only thing I changed is the Hispano cannon in the nose (one provided with the kit was not convincing at all) and two wing MG's - replaced by a needle.
