Revell 1:48 F-86D Sabre Dog

Welcome to my YouTube channel, bear with me as I’m new to this :tongue:
Since photobucket “amended” their service I’ll be starting with slide-shows of my previous builds. Some will be split into different sections, others will be “complete” builds, when I find out which is more popular I’ll stick to that.
At present I’ve no suitable video filming device, if the channel "takes off" maybe I’ll add “how to’s” and build reviews, but that’s a little way down the line.

pop over and have a look

leave comments and suggestions and hopefully I’ll improve
best rgds

This is my build of the Revell 1:48 F-86D Sabre Dog
The kit was built “out of the box” using AK Xtreme Metal paints for the NMF and MRP for the Day-Glo colour

Nice clean build. Did you clear coat over the decals?

Beautiful clean build of an iconic aircraft. The metal finish looks superb. :clap: :clap:

Can I ask a technical question? Do you know why the nose on this F86 is different to the more usual snub nosed version?

Nice video too.
Its been tried and tested, it works! So don't blame the system if you're no good. :doh:

no, I worried that applying a gloss would destroy the metallic look
