Nice `n clean build, Danumurthi! I like the appaerance with all the ordonance under the wings, even when it doesnt makes much sense for a "stealth" bird.😉😄

Danumurthi Mahendra
Hi Holger - thanks. LOLOL yes!

Michael Phillips
Fantastic work Dan! I hear this kit is a nightmare to build, can you reinforce or refute that? I have a KH F-35A in the stash, but I am tempted to get the new Meng F-35A which is out for like $39.99 in Asia...

Danumurthi Mahendra
Hi @Michael. thank you! and yes, this kit is a total nightmare to build. Every inch of the way, from the first cut to the last fitting of the parts drove me NUTS! Pound for pound, building this kit is like walking trough waist-deep mud. I have my building notes if you are interested I can PM you.

Michael Phillips
If it is not much trouble, yes, I would love to see them. I appreciate the offer. Part of me says to build the KH kit for the challenge, the other part of me says "fool, are you crazy?!" LOL

" building this kit is like walking trough waist-deep mud."

Strange that some KH kits are a pleasure and some are bloody sh*t...😎

Choppa Nutta
Looks good

Danumurthi Mahendra
true @Holger. I think there are inconsistencies. this is my first KH, but I have friends who made other KH models and and they have different experiences. some good, better, some bad.

Danumurthi Mahendra
Thanks @Choppa !

Christian Bruer
very nice work 👍

Danumurthi Mahendra
thank you @Christian

Spanjaard
hard to build but looks really fantastic at the end, something to be proud of!, well done Danumurthi, as usua 🙂

Danumurthi Mahendra
Thx @Spanjaard!

Erik Leijdens
Indeed very impressive. Have the KH F-35A in the stash, not very eager to start it! Yours is fantastic Danumrthi 👍

Christian Ristits
This is another great build from you Danumurthi! Have this kit also in my stash, but after reading your words I guess I will keep it there for a longer time...if you could send me also your building reports as PM, I would really appreciate it! Again - fantastic work!

Danumurthi Mahendra
Hi @Erik - Thank You. I have only done the F-35C version and yes its a very challenging build. I only heard from word-of-mouth that each of the variants fairs differently. I head one of them A/B/C is a better fit. (but now you know C has serious issues). so the better one is maybe the A or B? LOL

Danumurthi Mahendra
Just sent you a PM @Christian. I spent a lot of time figuring out what to do. And testing approaches that will not harm or destroy the model. If I was to build another KH F-35C, I can definitely work faster knowing my lesson learned.

Christian Ristits
Top!!! Thank you very much!

Stephan Ryll

Inspiriert durch die aktuellen Anlässe in der Welt, meiner Liebe zum Leopard 1 und dem Wunsch ein Gebäude in 1:35 zu bauen, bin ich auf die Idee für dieses fiktive Diorama gekommen. Das Diorama soll eine Panzer Crew bei der Rast zeigen. Der Panzer ist ein Feldumbau eines beschädigten Leopard 1 der zum abfangen von Drohnen umgebaut wurde. Die Mannschaft nennt ihr Fahrzeug "Fliegenklatsche" (мухобойка).

Inspired by current events in the world, my love for the Leopard 1 and the desire to scratch build a building in 1:35, I came up with the idea for this fictional diorama. The diorama is supposed to show a tank crew taking a break. The tank is a field conversion of a damaged Leopard 1 that was converted to intercept drones. The team calls their vehicle a "fly swatter" (мухобойка).

Spanjaard
great idea. i love how the house is evolving

Robert
Thanks Spanjaard

Robert
Die Ziegel wurden verfugt und das Dach aufgesetzt. Die Dachrinne wurde aus einer Katzenfutterverpackung (Aluminium) und das Fallrohr aus Gussgraten hergestellt.

The bricks were grouted and the roof was added. The gutter was made from cat food packaging (aluminum) and the downpipe was made from plastic sprue.

Robert Podkoński
Great concept indeed! Fantastic job so far, Robert. Keep it up!

Robert
Thanks Robert...

Robert

Jennifer Franklin
I love it all. The house is incredible. This looks like it is going to be a diorama with personality!

Robert
to kind, Jennifer

Jennifer Franklin
No, honestly, it is brilliant; I can't wait to see the final result.

Robert
I'm also curious what the end result will look like..
