Tarangus 1/48 SAAB 91 Safir B/C/D

Post by gaz45 »

Just thought i'd make a start on this while im doing the last GB and SIG there is a review of this kit and the sprues in the review section

Image

After getting this kit i was going to do the B variant but now i have some vajello metal color i will do the C or D variant to test the paints

Image

So to start with the cockpit and the fuselage halves also the instrument panel and the engine

Image

Next up ill get these parts primed and painted
Thanks for taking a look
