Was a gift from my brothers and I enjoyed building it. Interesting subject to read and learn about.

Here is the WIP Thread

The body is painted using Lifecolor's "Deep Cockpit".

Kit conclusion:

+ Easy and simple build
+ Decent fit
+ Good value
+ Lots of decals

- Only one marking option
- Difficult markings to paint, would have been better with decals
- Lack of interior detail

Snyggt jobbat!! Själv är jag ganska ointresserad av heli, gillar dock att kolla på andras byggen.
Blev riktigt najs!

Nice work!! :th:

Thanks, and if thats the case, maybe those billions we poured into the Gripen-project will turn out to be a good investment :D
