Northrop F-20

(1/5) > >>

ed s:
Here's my intended kit, Hasegawa 1/72 F-20 Tigershark. Haven't decided on markings or colors yet.




Don't know how much I'll get to work on it this week or when I'll get to the next update. We leave in the morning to head to the Gulf coast for spring break with the grandkids. I'll take my travel modeling kit, but I expect to be kept busy.

South Korean or RoC markings would seem suitable.

ed s:
Did I mention that this F-20 was also getting new wings. Here it is with the new wings glued and clamped. I installed the original wings with the outer portion cut off. This gave me a solid surface to mount the new wings and also meant I didn't have to do any changes or reconstruction of the wheel wells.




And here is the upper view with the clamps removed.



(Sorry the photos aren't the best. They were taken with the cell phone under less than ideal lighting.)

elmayerle:
Oh, that looks nice and it's quite the plausible way to do the modification.  I will likely adopt a similar approach for a "big wing" F-20.

finsrin:
Oh yeah - like where this is going.
