RoG kit, built right OOB. TMM paint. I named her Olga! [:D]
Nice looking Sabre habu! You did an especially nice job with the paint and decals around the nose, top notch! [tup]
Great looking Sabre. Always liked them in the German schemes.
Regards, Rick
Nice Sabre, well done.
Nice work, the weathering is well done, I like the fade look to the paint. I have this kit as well but have yet to do anything with it. Decals look thick to me, did they give you problems?
Olga, I don’t think hartmann would would agree with you, I’m not going to say what I picture in my mind when I hear that name[:)]." Usch" in much better.
Nicely done and I like how the weathering turned out on the undercarage…!!
As mentioned in the post above me, the decals may look on the thick side but they looked like they laid down w/out any problems…
Flaps up,

that’s nice[8D]
Beautiful job- I love the paint job and the arrow markings on the nose + tail.
The RoG Canadiar kit also comes with Cnadaian markings, as ome might expect. With all the hullabaloo over the Trumpeter and Japo Sabre’s, the RoG kit has sorta fallen away. It looks very nice, nice, nice.
The decals didn’t give me any big problems other than needing a lot of sol to get into the panel lines. They did silver a little, but that’s my fault, becuase Ionly used one coat of Future. But I just wanted to geterdone. A note about thick decals or not. I’ve used all different makes, some thicker, some thinner. The only problems I ran into were older sheets that needed some care in application. Modern decal sheets are made with modern techniques, and I’ve not run into any major problems with them. Applied correctly, thickness of the decal itself poses no appreciable problems. They just need a little more elbow grease per se. [8D]
The name might not be all right, but that’s wat my girl named her, and I went with it[;)]
Well done[tup] I to have the same kit. The problem with mine is that the German cross is messed up. The black in not centered with the white[:(] May have to try some after market decals for this on when it get to it.

Eagle Strike makes some good ones [8D]
Thanks for the big ups on the weathering. I usually preshade, but when doing a camo scheme it isn’t as effective, so I postshaded it this time. Then I used chalk pastels for the streaks. Sealed with the great equalizer, Testors Dullcote [^]
