jobeaux,
There used to be a 1:50th scale model of the F11F at Digital Paper Models, Card Models, Paper Models - HobbyFactory.com in the digital downloads. But I fail to see it offered any more. I have it on my old computer but have not built it. It has better panel lines than the one you built. I find that all the Stallhart line of models have the same issues. Namely too large of panel line thickness......Ron Maybe Rick or Jason can find it or is it just not offered anymore |

OOPS my bad. I found it at the top of page 8 in the digital downloads.
There is no picture of it and the scale is 1:48th....Ron |

Anyway, only FYI, all my models are vector-based and editable, which means anyone with a little knowledge in vector software could easily adjust them to their own liking. Kind regards, Chris |

Chris,
You have some very good designs but the panel lines are not my cup of tea. Everyone has their preferences. I think if you offered the thin panel lines it would spark more interest in your models....Ron |

Pretty good build of the F11F version there.
I really enjoy Chris's models. Boy I can't believe you've built it in 1:72... my fingers just won't cope, not to mention my eyes. I’m already finding it hard to build the 1:60 scale models… On the other hand I like to upscale his models and find them extremely easy to assemble, everything fits just as perfect as when in 1:60 scale. Even though I like to upscale them, I don't agree that the panel lines are too thick…. All said, you deserve a pat on the back… it's a job well done! |

jobeaux,
You noted in your opening comments that you thought you got the nose gear too long. It looks about right to me unless you are posing it as a cat shot then it would be shorter...Ron Last edited by Ron40; 02-16-2011 at 07:54 PM. Reason: added to comment |

Jobeaux,
the Software I use is Macromedia Freehand MX. It's hopelessly outdated, but has the vector tool I like best. Also, unlike Illustrator, it allows multiple pages. Aside from Freehand, the model pdfs can be edited in any Vector-based program, such as Adobe Illustrator, Corel Draw or Inkscape. Thanks for offering me the photos, I already added them to my user photos collection. Chris |
