Here's the first update on a project I recently completed. This build was particularly meaningful to me for a few reasons. Firstly, the F-22 is one of my all-time favorite aircraft. I've had this kit for several years, but I've always been hesitant to start building it due to the challenging paint job required for the Raptor. Luckily, and that's the second reason why this is so special to me, my loyal follower Marie asked me to build a Raptor for her. Since I was currently in between projects, I just started building right away and surprisingly the end result turned out better than expected. Most importantly, Marie is thrilled with the model I sent her!
Below you can see the pilot figure I painted just because I think aircraft in flight without a crew look odd. As far as I know, Raptor pilots are not equipped with JHMCS helmets but that's just a minor detail I decided to overlook given the small scale. More updates will follow as I'm currently working on a video showcasing the building and painting process in detail.

Would love to see more Raptor kits with other paint schemes and decals not requiring an air brush

@Matt Well, I don't know of any other paint schemes for Raptors other than the standard and chrome schemes! However, it's always up to you how you want to paint your model 🙂

Like to keep it authentic with decals and paint schemes - maybe we will see different paint design with a new future F-22 variant (if it happens). Many 5th gen jets seem to get pretty advance schemes where detailed airbrushing may be the best option though.

Sadly, I doubt we are going to see any variants - as the production lines have been shuttered for quite a while - and the USAF cancelled any new block upgrades in favor of the NGAD program. Outside of the Tomcat, I felt that the Raptor was a rare no-compromise aircraft built for total air dominance. I'm interested in seeing how you tackle the metallic coloring for this bird. I'd also love to see your comments on the pictures! 😀

Looking forward to visit "Airpower24" tomorrow. This reminded me that I have taken some pictures the last weeks that did not yet find the way into the album. So here we go.

I had trouble with the front landing gear on this kit breaking. I don't know if was just a fluke or if the mold is too thin. It may need reinforcement.

@ Starfish -thx for your comment. I have the Nato Tiger from '22 on the bench as well. Eurofighter Typhoon - "Austrian Tigers" 7L*WC | Album by jott (1:72)
And you are right - the more colourful livery is way more interessting (application of decals 🙂 - but also to look at it when done). I will up-date the other Album soon.

I am building 2 of those revel kits in parallel - both front landing gears broke already right after taking it from the sprue.... so thx for your advice, I hope other mates receive this info to take precaution.

I got this kit for a reduced price on a flea-market - due to the fact that the cockpit and seat were missing. The former owner spoiled it or put it aside - I don't know exactly. But it wouldn't be me not taking this challenge. Lets go and scratch an Eurofighther cockpit...

Hi mates - thank you for your nice words on my scratch work. Time consuming - but It came along nicely and better than I did expect.

As the cockpit is done I have to catch up with the Eurofighter Typhoon - "Austrian Typhoons" 7L*WB | Album by jott (1:72) build which is almost done. Beside livery the kit is 1:1 the same, so making up leeway isn't that hard I hope.

Just checked the newer Revell Eurofighter (Ghost Tiger box). It seems to have the same problem with the stabiliser 🙁

Stripped gold plating from wheels and exhaust. Not sure whether to use chrome on the wheels or paint them white.
Painted body Tamiya Racing Blue. Paint stand fell apart, which caused the body to fall while the paint was still wet. After letting the paint dry, I wet sanded the body and re-sprayed. A couple of drips from the re-spray requires another round of wet sanding. Wheels were painted white to match the intended color of the stripes.

Welcome everyone, glad to have you on board.
@Patryk: LOL, it is waiting in the stash indeed, but I'd like to train some tricks on Łoś and RWDs 6&8 first 😄

Insert "I was there 3000 years ago" meme 😄 I got this as a souvenir from our family trip to Poland back in the 80's and finished it in one afternoon sitting straight after our return. I do not doubt you are going to make much better PZL.37 replica than I did back then...

Somehow I missed that... taking a seat, of course! (I kinda "built" this kit three or four times as a kid...)

Welcome everyone, glad to see y'all here 👍
Say hello to the crew members awaitng varnish and washing.
Alec, I'm very jealous, I have failed to locate the turquoise one 😄
Andy&Rob - I sort of built at least two, no more I could remember, one has been lost 'flying' (in my hand) somewhere over my parents garden 😄
Andy - you're welcome 😄

I built this Łoś kit about 35-40 years ago.
These are memories...
Good luck with the build Łukasz! 🍀👍
