1/72 Trumpeter FC-1 / JF-17

Gallery Article by Zenden Ng on Apr 7 2011

 

A small but detailed kit from Trumpeter.  The fit can still be improved in areas of the cockpit and canopy but the building design is very well thought out and  results in minimum obvious gap so as to reduce the necessary sanding and filling. The PE engine in the kit is also wonderful in enhancing the realistic of the whole plane.

Everything is OOB except a MM40 Exocet on the center belly which is import from another kit.

I took 2 weeks to complete and enjoy building this kit.
