J35JThanks S M! Well, so far so good. I'm actually more concerned about getting the natural metal paint work done properly😅
The old Revell kit as such is a quite good mule for a Caesar as it is based on the early A & C version of the plane.😊 Downside is that the kit needs a lot of attention due to bad fitting. The landing gears is a disaster🙈

Thomas KolbHow did I miss this? A Skoldraken conversion, oh my. But I have to say it looks absolutely great already! And it's such a beautiful aircraft too.

J35JThanks Thomas for encouraging words. Yes, It really is a beautiful aircraft.
It's a pitty that Hasegawa didn't go the full way with also producing a SK35C version. Anyway there are some great aftermarket kits.
I started this build for exactly 30 years ago & then life came between.😅
Now it's time to finalize the porject.

CuajeteWow... it looks great now! I can't wait to see the end.
@Thomas Kolb, there is also a Skale Wings two-seater, but I think it is not the same version as this one.

J35JThanks Cuajete! Almost done, awaiting some stencils to be able to finalize.
Skale wings is nice covering the Danish version, that one can be reworked to a SK35C with some mods. Other kits to consider if you want to go two-seater you also have the old Heller kit. Maestro models have conversion kit for Hasegawa in both 1/72 & 1/48 which is nice. Nevertheless it need some work on the airframe to get the proper look.

CuajeteIt looks fantastic for its age. I think the same as Łukasz and would like all my old kits to look as good when I complete them one day.
Great job. Congrats!

J35JThanks Cuajete for your kind words.
Given the fact that this kit is based on Revells original mold from the 50's/60's it was a challenging build but it turn out according to plan.
