Perfect

[@KitKabinet]

Thanks, you're too kind

Nice build! The decals really make this era jets 👌

[@KitKabinet]

Thanks! Had to juggle with some spare decals though as the stars & bars from the kit were out of register. Luckily that sharkmouth went on without a hitch!

Lovely build👍

[@KitKabinet]

Thanks much!

That turned out very good 🥇🏆. It's nice to see an aircraft that doesn't already have 10,000 videos about it like a Messerschmitt Bf109 😴.
👍 🎥

Thanks! The F11F is indeed somewhat underrepresented as far as kit offerings are concerned. Even this old Hasegawa boxing is quite tricky to get hold of nowadays!

It's a beautiful plane, too bad he is only remembered for the incident of shooting himself

[@KitKabinet]

It certainly is an aircraft worthy of more attention, but the story of shooting itself down makes it all the more special!

​@@KitKabinetits a cracking little kit

The reference photo is a touch if class in every build !

Thank you!

Un avion élégant parfaitement réalisé. Il aurait été dommage de le regraver, cela aurait altéré sa ligne splendide. Bravo!

Merci mon ami! Le modèle de Hasegawa est encore toujours le seul disponible à cette échelle; je crois qu'un nouvel outillage serait le bienvenu parmi les maquettistes.
