1/48 AMK Kfir C2

Post by IanG »

So, no sooner have I finished my Fitter, and it’s straight onto to my next project.
I’ll be finishing this Kfir in the ATAC 3 grey camo scheme. 
The aftermarket I will be using is an Aires resin seat, and a MasterModels pitot & AoA probe set.
I’ve also started putting together some of the sub-assemblies, fuel tanks, and pods.

Yes John, that’s reason I wanted to do that scheme, it’s different.

Very nice how is the AMK kit, fit looks problematic?

Thanks James.
So far the fit has been good. There is the odd sink mark, but they’re easily dealt with.

Made a start on the resin cockpit set.
Despite it saying it’s for the Kinetic kit, I will make it fit! 😊

Post Christmas update.
Quite a bit done.
Seat, undercarriage, stores and pylons.
Airframe was black primed, and then airbrushed with Hataka Orange Line Light Ghost Grey, Dark Camo Grey, and Gunship Grey. Some post-shading has helped vary the tones.
Aqua Gloss is applied, ready for the decals.

More work done in the Kfir over the last few days. 
I've completed the post-shading, and Aqua gloss applied, and once dry, the decals followed. 
The decals were sealed with more gloss, then a panel line wash was applied.
