Here are some shots
of my F-86 Sabre at 1/48 scale. The model is from HASEGAWA, I added some
photoetched from an old sheet, just to improve the cockpit and especially the
seat.

The cart is from KMC; model is painted with TESTOR
METALIZER, and the yellow
bands with TAMIYA. Decals are from the box, as it was a special released box.
The model depicts the bird of Lt James L Thompson, flying " The Huff",
from 39th Fighter Intercept Squadron, 51st Fighter Intercept Wing. I put the
dragon figure at both sides, as nobody knows about that " problem " !
I also painted a dragon on his helmet....
