Thank you guys.

I am also planning to build other Stahlhart models.

Besides F-18 I am most interested in Saab Draken.

Well, let me re-join the fun of building small again. The 60 ans Canadian livery this time
and at the scale of 1/300 with landing gears. You can see that I wasn't following the building
instructions closely. Should have added the wing spar with the wings first but hopefully
will get there. Anyway, the rear air brake is up and arrestor hook in place. I'll be reverting
to this build when I de-focus from other major projects.

Well I have build the Austrian red white one in 1/200 and it is beautiful...it should pose you less problems in 1/300 in relation to the F-18. The hornet model is much more complicated. At least in MHO.

Your level of detail is mindblowing. Keep up the great work.

Yes it seems less complicated but still with these models I need to think how to build it and not hurry which is my problem with many models

Though I do not know when I will start building it, but I will post it here :D

Saab J-35 Draken in 1/300. Very beautiful aircraft and very good model.
It is easier than F-18 but still quit a challenge

Hi there, great work...not the huge 1/33 monsters. I made a Mig 15 smaller than 1/144, I do not know the exact scale but I made it as small as my skill allows...the cockpit (which I suggest you use the technique) was made by thermal molding clear plastic over a male (which I made out of milliput) It makes the model much more impressive in that scale!

Wow, very impressive. How people make these 1:300 scale just boggles my mind a bit.

After a while an update of my expanding collection of Stahlhart jewels.

I'm sure there is a lot of people that can do things we can't imagine.

I'm having hard time seeing some 1:100 parts ,never mind handling them.1:300 is way out of my reach.
