Beauteous Butch II
About 30g lead in the nose should work..
Aaaarghh.. by now fixed ofcourse.
Count the number of different Alclad II colors I’ve used..
Whoever says 11 is right..

This may pass as some real flaking..
but this not so much..
Happy
Waiting for the masking fluid to harden and remove.
Clueless as to what happened or how to approach this.
That is no mistake.. in field this F-1 received the 6-3 conversion kit. Strangely enough the yellow stripes were repainted on the new leading edge but not the insignia.
I got the white off without too much fuss or damage.. over the moon!
Quite happy compared to the original
Restored and Future drying thoroughly for a couple of days
Progress..
First time on its own..

Good work so far Sid! Cool subject too, wasn't he a son of Lebanese immigrants? May I ask why you have 3 F-86s attached to this project? Multiple builds or do you mix them up to get 1 perfect F-86?

Hi Erik, I had one for years, then ran across the Skyblazers one and after that the Eduard.. with the much improved seat! I would have liked to build an E from the F as well, have the Cutting Edge slats for that.. but then again, so many models, too little time.. so this might be just this one. But far from finished..
I think he is! Died much too young in a tragic car accident with his daughter at the wheel..
