Looking forward to seeing more Falco. And I concur with everything you say about S&P models. Not everyone's cup of tea, but to me they just have that 'it' factor.

S&p f-86f

It's been a while but here is my latest build... an ACTUAL 1/100 build of the S&P F-86F. I can't believe I am actually starting to get good at building 1/100 scale. Kit is printed on regular plain old 20lb cheapo office copy paper.

If this model of John Glenn's F-86 is an example your current 1/100 building standard then I would say DEFINITELY getting good Falco.

On Bruno's 'generic' instruction sheet he actually recommends the very paper (80gsm/20lb) you've done this in.

I don't want to jinx myself but I want a re-match with that damn A-4... Will I beat it or remain defeated?!? So excited... hesitating to hit print button tough.

That F-86 was great Falco !! Ah, I see that the thorn that the A-4 left you still hurts. Start the printer, I'm sure you'll win!

It's been a while but here is another 1/100 build of my "new" favorite Jet Trainer the Yak-130... This one is S&P Kit # 2943. Again happy with how it came out but I see a lot of room for improvement. Took longer than expected to build due to work schedule. Next is my old nemesis the dreaded A-4 Skyhawk.
