I'm slow. I know. So the pilot and HOTAS fitting was done. some filling in armpits will be necessary once the glue dries.

Throttle in 0% thrust position, the plane will be sitting on the ground, the wheels on C model are too freaking huge to not be included 😄

Stash is on the way, trying to find some decent and not too expensive RAM masks...

At least they got the make-up to look right..! 😄
Looking forward to your take at the GB as well as to see what the KH kit is worth - I saw the Meng box open, stuff looked all right in there, yet still no purchase followed...
Certainly not building the F-35 anytime soon myself, but happy to be a "loyal wingman" to your efforts!😉

Mail call today... the thing in 48th scale is silly huge lol... like a big clad of plastic, who would want to spend all the paint on that! 😄

Following! I have the KH F-35B and would love to see how the build on this one goes.

😄 Maciej - I haven´t seen the KH box specifically, but had a look at the Meng one in a store and thought - "oh, what a compact kit, is it really 48-scale?" 😄

Nice work mate! What colors did you use for the fuselage? Main color and raised panels?
