Aghis BarberopoulosJust added some work in progress photos - The basic camo is finished. Work is taking time due to details.
The underside is almost done, on the top I need to rework the intake cover and add dirt, wear and some paint chipping.

Aghis BarberopoulosMany thanks guys! Happy that you like it so far, more to come soon.

Aghis BarberopoulosWell, I decided to call it a day! The F-5A is finished. Would I build another Kinetic kit ? No, I do not think so.
Still this is a satisfying result, as it is my first post ww2 jet!

Dave FlittonIt's getting hard to tell which we're pictures of the real one from the model. Excellent work

Holger KranichHey Aghis!
Great result! You can be proud of it!

Ulf PetersenAnd I thought it was not allowed to show images of the original and pretend that should be the model!
Regards

Aghis BarberopoulosMany thanks to each and every one for all your kind words!
@Holger: Be prepared for some putty and sanding sessions. Make sure you have some fine grit sanding papers, as Kinetic's plastic is very soft and requires polishing after every touch...
@Augie: Special thanks, glad you like it!

Aghis BarberopoulosThank you guys. The F-5 is such a good design, it still looks good today - Imagine what a nice aircraft F-20 would be...unfortunately it was dumped I suspect due to the F-16A...

Dave FlittonThat is correct! The USAF wanted F-16s, they did not like the cost efficient model of the F-5 or its derivatives. That is why they retired the A-10 for a faster less efficient design (F-35).

Kerry COXHi Aghis, I am most impressed with your build and, all the others you have posted here in you album stack.
You see, What I am doing is I am visiting all the mates on my "Mates list" checking out all their albums so I have a better idea of who it is and what they do when they visit my builds and leave comments.
It is a great way to see just what you like to do in the way of subject matter and from what I have seen of your albums so far I am most impressed with. !
The one I do like a great deal and the one you have put a great deal of work into is the Marder III Ausf.H 1/35 Tristar.
The detail you squeezed in there is amazing.
I hope you didn't mind my "Hit and Run" but I have a lot of other mates to visit, but I am glad to say "Hello" I love your work.
Cheers Aghis. 🙂
