Sweet looking Sabre. The nose contours look right on. With the new pilot, it will be one nice looking jet. :D

I keep looking, but I am not sure what you see as off on the new F-86? I have been a huge fan of the F-86, and over the years collected lots of info on them. This to me is the most accurate looking F-86 model I have seen. I can't wait to see the finished model. :D

The line from the windshield forward is broken by the intake section-it should be a conform smooth line-look at admiral,or any pic. of the f-86..

He may mean the line where the two sides of the plane meet.

One thing I notice is that they got the bolts in and around the panel with the mg ports correct instead of just a random number horizontal dots and none vertical.
