You've done a great job on this basic kit. But there's one error, the shark fin antenna was made of glass fibre so no NMF leading edge on that one. It was a bit translucent as well.

Thanks guys! 👍
@Michel Very slowly... Many of the models I've posted here recently are older ones from my collection.

Outstanding work in this fiddly scale! What is the base plate made of if I may ask?

Mike Grant
Thanks guys!
@Torben. It's a block of clear acrylic sprayed flat black, the support is a section of paintbrush handle

Hard to believe this is an old Airfix POS 😄 Gives me some hope with an old 1/72 F104. Maybe I'll sand off the raised detail and rescribe it.

Clean Model and class presentation! 👍

That is very nice. The Draken is one of my favorite jet interceptors. The homemade decals look very good.

Album info

Not one of Airfix's best, but with a re-scribe and a few added details it looks like a Draken. It looks kind of gawky on its undercarriage so I decided to put this in flying mode on a base. Decals are home-made.
