Good time of the day, colleagues!

Let me introduce you a model of US aircraft of 5th generation F-22 by “Hasegawa” made in scale 1/48.

What can I say… Assemblability was on top, I needed putty only once to remove traces of pushers, that was on the inner surface (you may have noticed, if you look closely and very attentively), but I still decided to remove them.

I was painting with Gunze (exterior) and Akan (interior). I used:

  • color photoetching by Eduard (cabin), wheels by Eduard, arms by Eduard.
  • Washing by Tamiya.

I didn’t like the decals (they were fragile), I had to torment, and I haven’t coped with some of them – I changed them to paint.

Edward stand, imitation of asphalt – sandpaper painted with Revell paint (asphalt).

I was working over this model generally for about 8 months.

Frankly, I’m very satisfied with the result.

The aircraft is very beautiful. I recommend it.

Waiting for your wishes and comments.

Thank you.

  1. wow!

  2. Hello,
    Superb build! May I ask how you did go about painting the exhaust nozzle and the surrounding area? What colours did you use? I just ordered the same kit and I’m preparing myself :-)

  3. where did you get this kit?
