Academy 1/48 F-86F Sabre "MiG Killer"

Oh yeah-- that little bit at the top of the tailfin was an experiment to try to use a different shade...but I am not happy with it and will adjust that a bit...
 
Thanks Luiz, Ed, and Mark!

Yeah-- I don't really build much post-war stuff, but I do love the looks and style of the Sabre.
 
Thanks all-- nearly there-- just waiting on the nose piece to cure and some paint bits to touch up...decals ended up a little rough on me...part of the complication of splitting the fuselage :(

One last peek at the engine before I stick it up the front end ;)

Front half...with engine in place-- thankfully, there is enough weight to keep things nose heavy without having to add anymore ;)
