Transall NG
Hello Guy,
You may try fishing wire "UNI-Caenis 20 Den Black" for your next antennas wire : it is like spandex, has some elasticity, and doesn't need to be stretched so mast doesn't bend.
It is also very convincing for 1/72 : i can't see it if i don't wear my glasses...
Fine work !

Guy Rump
Hi Transall NG, many thanks for your kind comment and tip for an improved method for antenna wire, I'll definitely be giving it a go in the near future! 👍

Monte
Very nice! I would like some of the multi-engine Japanese aircraft on my shelf, but I have a lot of things to build before that. How old were the Hasagawa decals you used here? At what age would you be concerned about using older Hasagawa decals?

Guillaume Blanchet
love it!

I forgot to put this in the ideas so it is starting "in progress".

The Gnat had the canopy added, masked and then primer applied (light grey). I have painted the yellow with 3 coats of Vallejo Model Air Medium yellow and 2 coats of Hataka BS Golden Yellow. Next will be the tail. 🙂

Many thanks mate for your interest and like Sukhoi242. 👍

Guy Rump
Tail now painted black with yellow. 🙂

S M
Nice Yellowjack!👍

Mr D
Good to see the yellow on it, dose look good in the yellow.
Takes your time on the landing gear, can be little fiddly.
Good stuff 👌, thanks for uploading

Guy Rump
Sprayed with gloss varnish and then added the decals. Next will be adding the wheels and other ancillaries. 🙂

Many thanks for your kind comments SM and Mr D, they are greatly appreciated. @ Mr D, The front landing gear was very difficult to get off the sprue so I know what you mean. 👍

Many thanks mates for your interest and likes SM & Mr D. 👍

Guy Rump
Now completed, this is a Folland Gnat from the Yellowjacks display team based at RAF Valley, Anglesey in 1964, a forerunner team of the Red Arrows. 🙂 The last photo is a picture of the actual aircraft.

Hi Guy.
Nice to see it finished 👍
Looking nice, be good addition to the collection, like the yellow rudder.
How did the yellow paint go ? Can be an awkward colour.
Nice job👌 good stuff 👍👍

Robert Podkoński
Lovely!

Nicolas
Nice result guy. 👍

Ekki
Well done!

Guy Rump
@Mr D, I used a very light grey primer followed by Vallejo Model Air Medium Yellow and then Hataka Trainer Yellow x 2 coats over that. They went on better than I expected. 🙂

Mr D, Robert, Nicolas & Ekki, many thanks for the very kind comments, I appreciate them greatly. 👍

Łukasz Gliński
Following, having similar project on my mind

Jerem Aquette
You can also use some photo etched set but once everything closed, you won't see something: only the pilot canopy can be install open.
That's why I prefer to add some simple details and make a « good » paintjob.

You can also take the zvezda kit.

Skyhiker
I've got two of these in my stash but haven't started them because they look like trouble. Watching with interest.

Moreno Baruffini
I've started a similar kit ( still not shown here), watching with interest too!

Bruce Huxtable
Superb 👍🙂

Simon Nagorsnik
very good job, looks great 👌

Elshan Mammadov
Thanks!

Rui S
Excellent 👍 Great photos too.

Rewop
Very impressive, particularly for a 1/72. Very well done.

Juskifo
Wow all these tones of paintings I thought before I saw that it was on a scale of 1/35

Robin (WhiteGlint)
Nice work! Very well done painting and weathering! 👍

Neuling
Top build and presentation!

gorby
Wow!
It looks like Zsolt has competition.

Robert Podkoński
Is it really in 1/72nd scale or you have produced such a big match? LOL 😉 Absolutely fantastic!

Elshan Mammadov
Yeah, the most difficult was to build the match!😉Thank you all friends for your kind words!

Mr James
Another superbly weathered kit, wondrously presented

Rui
Superb work at this scale! 🏆

Jennifer Franklin
Another older build that Mr. James has dug up is gorgeous. Thank you for shining a light on this one.

Elshan Mammadov
Thank you mates! Happy you like it!

Have this in my stash would be interested in which colours you painted. Will give me some ideas to come away from desert scheme.

Villiers de Vos
Very nice work.

Michael Schubert
Looks awesome, especially at that scale!!!

Elshan Mammadov
Thank you!

Zsolt Czegle
AWESOME! 👍

Rui
You're a wizard with the weathering and a magician with the camera, my friend. 👍

Elshan Mammadov
Thank you mates! Very glad you like it and nice to hear good comments from such specialist in this scale as Zsolt.

CaptGPF
Whoa! That paint job just makes at model pop! The weathering is unique, rather than just crabbing up the model, it actually accentuates the camo colors. VERY VERY VERY WELL DONE!!!!!

Elshan Mammadov
Appreciate!

Pepe

thanks Chris 👍🏻 simple sponge chipping, as always

Guy Rump
Very nice build! 👍

Ben M
Ah one of my favorite subjects! Very nice painting and weathering. How were the tracks to build on this one?

Lebloge
Superb work 🫡
