Military Aviation Modelling : JF-17

[Manticore]

first few coats of colours after priming.
White sprayed, masks cut and added to the airframe, Gunze 66 (bright green) sprayed, masks removed.

I used the kit's decals for the stars as the small ones were way too small to even cut properly.
Surprisingly they were rather opaque. I handbrushed Future over the yellow stars to help them settle in without silvering.

Great work antibody,thanks for sharing...it should have taken days to finish this?

hi! my kit will be arriving in a couple of weeks .. so i was surfing the net to find the decals and paints options and methods [which ive never done yet] secondly i wanted to post the methods employed by foreigners who have made our jf17 -- just to show how satisfying this hobby can be!

i hope this thread is ultimately taken over by pak. posters , as of now , not a single picture in this thread [of jf17] is by a pak. member

ive myself built multiple f15, f16,su27,mig21,and several navy aircrafts-- however they are not painted or in a uniform scale.. as i started this hobby in 7th grade , so i made any kit i could get my hands on!

the chinese toy industery came up with the j20 kit in 2 weeks of the first public flight-- that was fast!


i think people are buying jft as it involves some interesting intricate details like the stars/crescent and dual paintings
