★ Starfish ★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.

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

★ Starfish ★@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 🙂

Matt LLike 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.

CaptGPFSadly, 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! 😀

Michael KohlVery nice Vampire. The nice color modulation on wings and fuselage brings the elegant french livery out well.

Michael KohlI was pondering whether to buy that kit. So I am anxious about your build and appreciate some inside views on quality, fit, etc.
