Masking tapes removed, revealing a rather faded and worn Swedish camouflage. Now let's give the paint some time to harde...

Thomas, I knew you were going to get this kit! 🙂
I was hesitating a lot between the Swedish box and the Jordanian box. It took me a long time to decide, but in the end I ordered the Jordanian one because I already have several future projects with that fantastic Swedish scheme.
I follow you with great interest (as always). It is quite possible that I will finally regret choosing the Jordanian box 😉

Did some dry-fitting yesterday, and just as I expected by the looks of it, it is definitely A-model quality. A lot of fettling, scraping and sanding is required for a decent fit of the major parts such as the fuselage halves and the wings. Good thing it is a small model!

It seems that it is of the same "quality" as their SF260 and Alpha jet kits. Have you ever built the venerable Airfix kit ?

I will watch too how you turn this ugly duck into a beautiful swan.

Erik, I actually think that this is a retooling of the Airfix kit. Slightly different parts and recessed panel lines, but the breakdown is almost identical.

I´m following. Looks like a bunch of work to get a proper model out of this kit. I'm sure you will handle it.

I think KP/AZ should start an improvement their molds after so many kit releases and sales, as Special Hobby has already successfully done. It is curious that for some kits they make good molds (such as the Bf-109) and for others they are so mediocre.
Despite this, I am sure that Thomas will do an extraordinary job 👍

I am a little late, but from now I will follow with pleasure and interest (like all Thomas's previous builds 😉 )

Looks like a lot of craftsmanship will go into this kit before the end of the build... Curiously following 👍

This little kit is definitely putting up a fight in every step. Silly me, I thought this was going to be a relaxed weekend project, ha ha. 🙂

KP short run = long work. I prefer Vallejo putty for filling seams on this type of kits, as it comes with a fine tip

Erik yes, I think the photo shows a bit of my frustration with the seam lines. It should not be like this for a 2022 tooling.

Thomas, will the skinny front landing gear hold the weight of all those fishing weights?
17 August 2022, 10:59
![](/profiles/img/57594-145-s.jpg)
Well, those weights are juuuust barely enough to keep the Bulldog on its nose gear and still kind of pivots around its main gear. Good thing that the entire engine compartment behind the dashboard is empty so with some Tetris skills you can fill it completely with those fishing weights.

So the front wheel does not support any weight, as the nose is in balance with the tail. I had the same problem with KPs SIAI Marchetti, and the SH Marchetti needs also quite some weight in the nose.

not a shake an bake-kit for sure. I like how you tackle it. For maximum usage of weight in tight spaces consider lead granules. They come rather cheap by the kilogram and have a diameter of max 1 - 2 mm. You can even drill a hole into the fuselage after it is closed and pour the granules in - followed by some white glue to fix them.

After having lingered in the limbo state of half-finished projects, I have decided to reboot this build. The screwed up paintjob was removed with IPA alcohol and the model is now back to bare plastic. Some correcting fills are done and it is soon time to reapply the primer. I will make my life easier this time and just build the standard Swedish Air Force version. But I have already purchased a second kit to be finished with the Swedish Army splinter camouflage as I think I know this time how to do it properly. Stay tuned!

Great to see that you have restarted the kit. The weight distribution is a real pain. Had similar challenges with my Airfix SK61 build some months ago, Liquid Gravity sorted the issue.
SwAF livery will look aces. Keep up the spirit!👏🏼👍🏻

No idea what that livery will look like, but nice that this one is back at the bench. Reminds me of my Safir which is at a similar state.

Thomas, It's fantastic to read that you are taking up this project again. Great!

Okay, this project definitely appears jinxed. This morning, the model ended up under a tool shelf that toppled over, which resulted in severe damage to the fuselage joins and broke both undercarriage legs and the stabilizers, and the canopy furthermore ended up with a nasty crack. Yes, a wee bit annoying. I will now check if there is anything I can do to salvage the model, but I think that I would rather prefer to restart. Quite frankly I was really starting to regret that I didn't go for the splinter camo, so I see this as an opportunity.
