AREA 88: F-5A FREEDOM FIGHTER (SHIN)
A very nice box... big!
The spures have a bit of flash, but not unusual considering the age of the molds.
As always, cockpit first.
The decals fit nice and cleanly... good news!
The fit is a bit suspect... putty will be needed.
After a bit of putty and sanding, it's looking a lot cleaner.
Not quite clean enough. I can still see a bit of a seam... how much do I care?
A first coat of light brown... I wonder how much of the undershading will be retained once I'm done.
First camouflage coat. As I suspected... the undershading is already disappearing.
Second camouflage done... now for some aluminium undercarriage bits.
Hmmm... somethings missing... oh, yeah. The cockpit!
Weathering complete... now just some decals to add.
