Thanks Michel, it's been said that the Kinetic should be the one to have. I can't compare that.

Fuselage and other parts together. Next up, filling and sanding. It's needed!

@Heico
A modeler did a comparison on ARC between the 2.
The cockpit dimensions and seat are very different.

Michel: The cockpit fitted in great on this one.
Michael: Thanks, i hope i can make you enjoy 😛

Wings on. Had quit some work filling and sanding. I must say im a bit dissapointed with that for such a new kit.

I only need to mask the canopy and then it's ready for paint.

Damn, Heico, i missed this build! Lovely Kfir! Do you like the kit? Any issues or flaws?
27 October 2013, 17:31
Heico van der Heide
Hi Holger,

It has some weakpoints yes. Especially the airintakes i found a weak point. The wing also didnt fit 100% But the canopy for instance fits really well!

Like the SAAF Cheetah D with her Long Nose, the Kfir is one of my favorite Versions of the beautiful Mirage family.
Is there a extra model engine inside the Kinetic kit ???

Heico van der Heide
I dont understand your question exactly, but there is an engine in the kit. But is one piece. You can see it from the back ( standing up ) in one of the pictures.

Masked the canopy. Next up, paint!

Wim van der Luijt
What happened?
25 January 2014, 20:11
Heico van der Heide
I don't know. The paint just wouldn't go on right.

First decals on. Decals are outstanding by Cartograf!
10 April 2014, 15:18
Heico van der Heide
All decals on now. Next up another layer of gloss and then it's time for weathering!

despite the earlier painting disaster, it is starting to look good
11 April 2014, 05:12
Heico van der Heide
Thanks Wim, i am fairly satisfied with it.

Tones are looking very nice Heico! How's the kit itself btw - i've heard a lot of mixed opinions about Kinetic kits and i'm hesitating to buy one of these.

Heico van der Heide
Thanks Murad, the kit itself is fairly nice. It has some good points and some bad points. I can't compare to the Avantgarde but if you want a Kfir this probably is the one to go for. Lot's of weapon options. But be sure not to pay too much, cause at some places it's really overpriced for what you get😉
