So I whipped this out the other week. Straight out of the box build, no lights, no resin (actually the pilot is resin), no PE. It was a joy to build. I enjoyed it so much I may build another with lights, and all the extras. It was painted with Tamiya white, weathered with pastels and acrylics, decaled and then flat coated with Testors Dullcoat.
Great work! I have one of these in the stash. I was thinking of trying to get her done in the next year or so.
Nice!
Weathering and decals look realistic.
Is the pilot included in the kit or AM?
Thanks guys. It’s a great little kit. The wings were a bit fiddly with the way the whole rear attaches, but not too bad. Yes the pilot is included in the kit. Surprisingly, the figure is resin with great detail.
I have seen some fan produced images of the Viper in other markings like Air Force, police, and even a two tone blue Corsair type paint job. Something I want to try on the next one.
