Thomas KolbThank you Robert! The three-bladed standard propellers in the kit are actually fine, it is the transparencies I am a bit worried about.

CuajeteMe 5!
I still don't understand why they haven't released a more updated tool for this model yet.

Moreno BaruffiniThomas, you are a specialist in reminding me the models I started and non finished (yet)! Super inspiring, and a great build to follow for sure!

Thomas KolbDear friends, thank you for your interest. I am a bit curious myself how this model will turn out - I have read some pretty nasty things about it in reviews, but I am not sure it's so bad. It certainly looks very intricately designed, not your usual shake 'n' bake kit for sure.
18 August, 19:49
Gergő TakácsThomas, you are doing always the same project what I want to do in the future with the same kits. 😀 I'm always taking a seat and save your work for motivation.

Thomas KolbVery nice cockpit! How do you find the 3D decals, are they worth the extra cost?
17 August, 07:48
Falk RölligWelcome mates. In 1:72 scale 3D decals are a way better than pe and my hands are to shaky to paint. I use them for most of the models with open canopies. For inflight models and with pilots i think it's not necessary. With Kelik and Eduard 3D i'm not always happy, but Quinta for me it's the first choice.

FreakAwesome weathering! How did you do that? Pre-shading, post-shading? And how many washes? I guess that looks like at least a grey and a rust wash
26 December 2022, 12:01
MagentaThank you Mr. Freak. And sorry for replying more than a year late. All weathering was done by post shading. The paints I used were Tamiya panel line accent color dark gray and GSI Creos Mr.weathering color ground brown.

FreakThank you! I'm constantly asking for tips from the best modellers on scalemates and am still model building (though a 1:1 scale house is keeping me busy these weeks).
It's a lovely surprise to get this info suddenly in my notifications! Looking forward to your next builds!

Phase 1 done! Now paint prep and detaling
19 21 July, 09:11
J35JThanks Gorby! This is my second vacu kit build and this time it feels a little bit more straight forward…
My experience so far with vacu kits is that you have to spend a good amount of time on fitting, sanding and putty work to get a nice base for paint and finishing. Also spending quite some time reviewing old photos to get a good picture of the details. This as there is a fair amount of scratch work to get a decent build.
25 July, 11:25
Robert PodkońskiYou're a brave man, indeed! I will follow this thread with pleasure, for sure.
25 July, 12:55
Mr DNice, Nice 👍👍, lalways wanted to see a vacform build, Do you have to make up other parts to add on ??
Thanks for upload 😃👍
27 July, 19:59
J35JThanks Mr D for your comments.
There will certainly be scratch build involved, mainly regarding the details as it looks for now. Otherwise I will raid my spare part stash first in order to save time and frustration.
If you are intrested in vac kits you can also have a look at my first vac kit:

Mr DThanks 👍👍 great, will do , l have an intest...as l enjoy making parts, lve had to do it few times, when parts lost or broken or details missed of kit...even canopy once 🤣.
Will check out the XP-67
28 July, 17:00
J35J@Mr D - yes you will need some good scissors as a start😅, for the fine tuning of the parts I normally use saw razor blades and sanding paper of variuos grits. Regarding glue I use "normal" Tamyia Extra Thin, the vacu kit plastic is often quite soft and melts easily.
30 July, 19:02
J35J@Skyhiker - Happy to hear that your following with great intrest. Usually the building pace goes down during the sommer period as I have been reminded that we have a garden that also need some TLC…😂
Nevertheless, yes there is planning and ordning of parts going on behind the scenes. Cockpit need to be done, rescribing the full kit, alignment of wheels as the mold was totally off-set. Drill out all machine guns for after market parts etc.
The main work will be to prepare the plane for NMF look also including some aluminum dope areas. Will try AK's metal paints this time. Stay tuned!

Łukasz GlińskiLuckily the old Russian saying applies to Sweden too - "we have only 10 months of winter, but all the rest is summer!" 😄
31 July, 07:41
J35JMr D - regarding reference photos and material, did research some photos and blue prints on-line. In addition I have also checked out some ref builds both in 1/72 & 1/48 for further input on details.
Yes, the PE venting turned out good. Next step is to paint the cockpit and glue the airframe together
17 August, 05:27
Mr DGreat 👍👍 l like something different n interesting like this.
I recently used the thick tin foil of a hot chocolate lid to make a lost seat belt, it worked really well.
Like the seat.
Thanks for input n uploading 😁👌
17 August, 10:43
J35JThanks Thomas, really appreciate your comment!
As usual the project ambition increases over time…😂
17 August, 13:07
J35JMr D - thanks for your intrest and encouraging comments.
This time I went the easy way with just some tape for seat belts
17 August, 13:12
J35JThanks! Feels always nice when the main build part is done and everything is aligned. Now time for rescribing.

Ferenc SarkaI made the revell version earlier. A little bit better but neither of them is issue free. The revell unreachable on the market, just the italeri version. Good luck for your project.
5 July, 20:53
Thomas KolbI am definitely following this build. The Italeri kit is not an easy build (and it is a model of the very first A-version of the Gripen, not the C-version used by Hungary), but it is the only one that exists today. I am however sure you will do a splendid job!
