Very Well done, airbrush work and weathering are spot on.

A rather excellent take on this generally popular aircraft specimen 🙂 The colors and surface finish matches the original from the photos perfectly, the brown has the right tone and the green & sand almost blend together from certain angles & light... Well struck 👍 Honorable mention also for the crazy payload details on the bombs and the "eyes" on the AA´s! Very, very good result Daniel 👍

Thank you john, stefan and slavo, I really appreciate your comments! Yes, that green is a very curious color, it seems to be a bit different every time I look at it, depending on little changes in light

A pleasure to behold from all angles. You've sold me on this kit for sure!

Thanks a lot Moritz, Nathan, Hans and James, so glad you like it! This is really the best if my work inspires someone and I am looking forward to seeing your builds, I am pretty shure they will be lots of fun and turn out beautiful 👍

Daniel, I was able to pick one of these up at Victory Models this weekend. Always worth the 2 hour trek to this store! The kit was on sale and I was able to pick up all the paint colors I needed for my Aggressor builds too. I'm sure I'll be heading back as they aslo had tons of resin bits for this kit in the shop, but my wallet was just too tapped out😉

Thank you guys, I am looking forward to seeing yours built👍
@Nathan: That is so awesome to have a good shop to go to, and a rarity nowadays, over here they all closed or went online-only. A shame, but I guess we have ourselves to blame in the end...

Daniel, you have made a breathtaking Kfir ... such beautiful natural looking colors, fantastic 🙂! What kind of matt coat did you use ...?

Daniel
Thank you for the kind words Jos, I used mr.color gx super clear, after trying a lot of different flat coats and never being satisfied this one finally delivered 👍

Okay thx Daniel...I use a mix from Hataka, 1 part Matt Lacquer Clear Coat and 1 part Satin Lacquer Clear Coat...this give a superb natural look!

Sounds good and your results certainly speak for themselves Jos. I also did a flat-gloss mix for my j-11, which is pretty shiny in RL, but I'll further experiment for different aircraft. This one is very matt, probably more than the original, but I like that on a desert camo.
