Skymaster F-5E 'Tiger' from Fighteraces
Posted: March 23rd, 2011, 11:53 pm
Just about ready for delivery is this Skymaster F-5E 'Tiger'.
This started out life as a standard 'white gelcoat' kit rather than a pre-painted ARF. The customer request a few extras in the form of the large refuelling probe on the side of the nose plus a full complement of rivets and all of the 'nomenclature' (dry set rub on decals)
Paint is a combination of cellulose primer, Warbirdcolors colour coat and a Klass Kote clear coat. Paint masks were from Nigel @ Flightline Graphics & dry set decals from Ralle at Tailormade decals in Germany.
