Little Trumpy F-86

Post by Fermis »

Haven't delved into 1/144 aircraft in years...not since I was a kid!
Just finished this tiny F-86.

Mostly OOB....the seat was way undersized, so I built a new one, as well as added a few details to the pit.

Very neat little plane. Tiny indeed!

I love the teeny plane! You folks doing these things amaze me. I have enough issues with details in 1/32 or 1/35 scale, let alone anything smaller. Looks really nice.

However, I believe your penny isn't weathered properly. Nor is it correct for the era...

Don't worry Owl, he's messing with us. The plane is actually 1/48 scale and the penny five times bigger than a normal penny. :giggles: :lashed:

Nice work Fermis! Again, even in that tiny scale, you manage to make that model look bigger than Life. Way to go! :shoutout: :shoutout: :shoutout:

My my how detailed a 1:144 can actually be!

You really need to have a steady hand building and painting those tiny birds
Looking very good all in all!
