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.😉😄

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...

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.

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...😎

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.

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

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

![](/profiles/img/15122-902-s.jpg)
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!

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
1 July 2017, 07:46
![](/profiles/img/21588-581-s.png)
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.

Great result! 👍 I envy you that you are already finished with yours 😄
Working just now on this same kit, it's a proper challenge, to put it nicely.

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).

Make yourself comfortable, István and J35J. This will be surely a long party... 😉
27 August, 13:25
![](/profiles/img/48972-166-s.jpg)
Believe me, István, A-model kits are much more modeller-friendly than Mach 2... Take a look here, for example: modelingmadness.com/..korean/us/hammx2.htm
27 August, 15:20
![](/profiles/img/104687-298-s.jpg)
That's something to be excited about. Mach2 kits don't have the reputation of being shaking kits. 👍
27 August, 15:50
![](/profiles/img/10591-s.jpg)
As I said on the project, I wish you luck with this, it is something you seldom see, but it looks cool in the end. It is quite a long time ago when I did mine - al the best!
and, so far it does not look that bad for a mach2
27 August, 15:57

What an audience I have... I feel a bit under pressure now 😉 @Martin - you're right, at least the polistyrene seems to be of a good quality.

27 August, 21:11

It's such a cool subject, I remember seeing it in my dads airplane books when I was young.
27 August, 21:42
![](/profiles/img/69549-898-s.jpg)
Robert, once again you have chosen a great topic. The French experimental jet powered Leduc aircraft looked really futuristic at the time of its creation.
I wish you strong nerves and a lot of fun building your model!
27 August, 22:30
![](/profiles/img/48972-166-s.jpg)
Now I feel even more pressure 😉 ... @Bruce - I know what I am talking about, I have completed a few models from both producers already 😉 @Ludvik - I was lucky enough to see both Leduc 010 and 022 in Le Bourget museum and they still look futuristic imho 🙂
28 August, 05:35

He certainly wouldn't be a disgrace as a space fighter in Star Wars. 😄
The photos of the kit parts show that you really have a lot of work ahead of you.

Hi Robert, Haha! 'da Putty Party'... Love it!... Following with great interest 🙂
28 August, 10:29

Still, the plastic is workable, Ben. As far as I have checked: it can be filed, filled, and glued... So, there is hope... 😄
28 August, 13:40

I looked in the stash and I have a mach2 kit I bought when I was young and foolish.
28 August, 13:45
![](/profiles/img/48972-166-s.jpg)
I have five, not counting this one... Hmm...the testimony of what kind of mental disease it is? Nothwithstanding, only Mach 2 offered models of some exotic planes, like X-24.
28 August, 14:19
![](/profiles/img/20442-422-s.jpg)
I wish you luck Robert. Your going to need it (and probably a stiff drink or four). 😉
Was the kit mould made from soap? 😄
28 August, 15:14
![](/profiles/img/48972-166-s.jpg)
Thanks for your encouraging words, Gorby! ... It seems probable, taking into account that in some Mach 2 kits the material itself is "soapy"... 😄
28 August, 16:08
![](/profiles/img/44957-709-s.jpg)
A French prototype and a Mach 2 kit? Can't miss that... I see I'm late but a seat way back in the gallery must be still available...

Welcome, Łukasz. I've been waiting for you 🙂 I don't think so - not enough space, time, skills, and I am not sure if the kit is still available
Sud-Est S.E. 161 Languedoc (Broplan MS-146, 1:72)
BTW. On the photo you posted, there is the earlier of Monsieur Leduc's creations - model 010.

Fingers crossed for your Mach2 endeavour 👍
30 August, 14:17

Lucky you! So, perhaps you will assembly the Languedoc...and then we will join your forces, Łukasz? 😉
30 August, 17:11

Not sure, mine has to be Polish marked 😛 If I ever come to assemble it 😄

![](/profiles/img/10307-421-s.jpg)
HA-- I had done this once (Leduc 021 | Album by jott (1:72)) and....OMG. Therefore I like the head-line of your album and... I done know how to put it: good that you take it with humor 😉
6 September, 20:00
![](/profiles/img/69549-898-s.jpg)
Robert, you're handling this brilliantly. I wish you continued success with the construction...
... and that your supply of putty and sandpaper lasts. 😄
7 September, 16:28
![](/profiles/img/48972-166-s.jpg)
Thank you, Ludviku... perhaps some substantial amount of thick CA glue as well...

...off the Vega rabbit hole....looking at the period photo, it is clear the decals are just plain wrong for this airplane. So, it has become a decal project now....anyone where to find that Alaska Airways Logo?
28 December 2023, 03:36
![](/profiles/img/user-s.jpg)
Got an option to scan the decals, correct the color and print it out again?
28 December 2023, 09:27
![](/profiles/img/64707-255-s.jpg)
Yes, scanning the decals was an option but looking closely at the kit decals shows they tried to make them fancier than the real aircraft and won't be of much use. It is a simple enough masking job and paint will be used and a few of the kit decals.
28 December 2023, 11:54
![](/profiles/img/64707-255-s.jpg)
folks...it was time to check the side of the fuselage to see what size the logo was....and it became clear the kits setup for the struts wasn't quite right and it looks like the little set of stairs in the kit is more like a ladder all the way to the float ....in all....a good look at the actual airplane is order before too many commitments are made...see airplane archive photo....
5 April, 01:52
![](/profiles/img/64707-255-s.jpg)
time to scratchbuild a float strut set.....and make a big white circle on the side as a decal background...and print a decal...and so on....its getting there.....
5 April, 01:56
![](/profiles/img/64707-255-s.jpg)
i need to get better at adding wires, etc to builds...but the strut rebuild is underway...
16 April, 16:20
![](/profiles/img/64707-255-s.jpg)
.....the Vega is a history challenge because the more u see the more the kits struts make some historical sense...the kit is an amalgam of various stage and varieties of Vegas...and there are many....actually found a place in Alaska that will sell you floats and a detailed description of how it attached to a Vega or Vegas....if it ever arrives, it will get a photo here for sure...thank you, as always...
20 April, 00:43
![](/profiles/img/130395-735-s.jpg)
Great work. The decals look fantastic. Nice to see interesting, obscure subjects being built.
9 May, 00:59
![](/profiles/img/46074-728-s.jpg)
You might want to give that a light sanding. There is a bit of orange pealing and the decals are pretty thick. Just test it before going crazy. It looks really good. This will be a great addition to your collection.
12 May, 06:25
![](/profiles/img/64707-255-s.jpg)
i'd be terrified to touch that finish...the decals are home printed...perhaps that means a thicker result?
this one will not be a complete success in any case because of the gold paint switch...that will be more obvious than any surface detail...it will still be fun to look at....
thanks again....
12 May, 09:45
![](/profiles/img/46074-728-s.jpg)
Yes, I wish they made printer decal paper that wasn't so damn thick. The last time I used some I had to layer a lot of clear lacquer on the model to get things even and do some light sanding. They are really tricky to get flat. Your model looks great as it is. If you're not comfortable with the extra work just leave it.
12 May, 13:51
![](/profiles/img/46074-728-s.jpg)
The difference in gold could be worked around if you printed the flag on white decal paper and the Alaska Coastal on clear decal paper. That way you could paint the gold circle and layer the decals. But the original plane looks like it matches your decal and the markings seem to be yellow rather than gold. However these are inconsequential details that rivet counters look at.

Thank you all for your kind comments! Much appreciated really. The kit is fantastic, everything fits except for maybe the open canopy, which i had initially used. But the Montex masks did not work properly, so i had to buy an Eduard mask for the closed canopy. That mask by the way has some flaws too as it does not consider some important details.
The rigging was a huge challenge, for sure 🙂
