Canadian Armed Forces Viggen - Tiger Meet markings

One of my ancient whifs



Not a particular fan of the Viggen, but I found it for  next to nothing at a garage sale - slightly started and only missing the decals. Certainly much easier to paint a CAF Viggen with Tiger Meet markings as opposed to the Swedish splinter scheme!!

Not a particular fan of the Viggen....

Burn the heretic!!!!


Seriously, I like how that turned out. The Viggen would probably have looked quite smart in a Tiger Meet scheme in real life.

^ Because he said he wasn't a particular fan of the Viggen! That makes him a heretic in my book, too!
Bring out the torches and pitchforks!
Jolly good model, though.  :) Means we (might) refrain from burning him at the stake.  ;D

How can you not like Viggens?  :o

Anyway, that is a fantastic example. Love it!

Yet more proof that few things add spice like maple leaf roundels!

Nicely done!

I am a Viggen fan. That's not a whif, it's a should-have-been! Nice work, man  :)
