Thank you Philip 😉
The cockpit is from Cutting Edge, wheels are from Royale resin, and I'll maybe change the AIM 9B already done by the Eduard's Sidewinders...

The next one will certainly have a Cutting Edge Wing fold mechanism, CE cockpit mixed with AMS Resin MB Mk 5 and Furball "Fast FORDS" decals...

WOW!! Absolutely amazing and skilful work! Beau boulot!!!
I like your attention to all those fine details!
Could you please explain something about this extremely thin and fine detailed exhaust pipe?? What brand, self-made??

stefan natus
Great eye for detail,and like dirk i am curious about the exhaust.

Thanks for your comments!
The exhaust pipe and the perforated tail end plate are from Eduard PE sheet.
The part is heated with a small torch, then curved with a cylinder and hold with Kapton.
The burnt colors at the end and inside the nozzle are made with different oil, inks & Tensocrome touch and/or washes.
Before the color, the heat process can be very useful to give a burnt effect 😉

I just realized that it's possible to write a comment just near the pictures... I made a test and... It works fine!!!
I don't now if it's possible to add comments on the pictures which have already been posted...
Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated 😉

Great detail added Pascal. A pleasure to watch your progress in the photos. The cockpit turned out well and the wash and small decals on the sidewinders give life to the model. For photos already posted, if you go to your album and click the 'edit' button, you should be able to add comments.
