TreehuggerBtw, there are two tiny thingies at both end of the big wings. These are nav lights of sorts. Red on the left side, and blue on the right side, according to some paint chart I've seen recently.

NeilHi all π I've finally got around to taking 'reveal' pictures for many of my previous build albums. I shall be updating each and including a few build notes in the description too - especially on the bits I messed up!
Here is my version of that 'Blu Petter' kit for the Airfix Saab Viggen completed in 2021. Excuses alert! It wasn't the best fitting kit, being an earlier Airfix effort.
Thanks to all who showed interest and liked, it's greatly appreciated π

CaptGPFLoved the coloring and restrained weathering. Very well done!

NeilHi Gary, Daniel and CaptGPF, thanks very much mates. Really appreciate you talented bunch commenting. I too love the kit colour scheme on this one and with hindsight; and an acceptance of some kit flaws, in my opinion it builds up into a pretty decent kit for an older Airfix one 👍 Thanks also to all those who've liked my efforts here too 🙂

The Saab 37 Viggen (Swedish for "the bolt" or "the tufted duck") is a retired Swedish single-seat, single-engine, short-medium range combat aircraft.
One good example is the blue-painted JA-37 which was the star of static display at Air Show 2001 in Uppsala β a large and memorable event marking the 75th anniversary of the Swedish Air Force. The aircraft, called BlΓ₯ Petter (Blue Peter) became the object of vivid interest of many SwAF fans.
