That is the Admiral F86, correct?
I'd love to repaint my German AirForce version, really like what you're doing!

working on decals and placement, not perfect, but looks pretty good for a first timer using underlays.

As this is a showbird,are you going to use a glosscoat over the decals?

well she's all done up, and will be going on ebay. i give it an 85 out of 100. the decals were alot of trouble they kept rolling up this morning, funny thing is last night the ones i put on seem to go on pretty easy, beats me, i am open for some advice about it for sure.

Very Nice Well Done

Greetings:

I'm now the new owner of this plane, looks good with TKO's on display. Interesting to look at two different customizers and the different approaches to things they used and did on each model.

Did some minor work on this. I found a green and red plastic part and made new wing lights. They are larger than the originals but look a bit better color wise. thatf14guy also said the pitot tube was missing so I made a new one. Rather than get a whole can of gold paint for one part, I just painted it silver, looks decent enough that way.

Neat airplane. He did a great job with it.

Good eyes, jkinzel.

Just on one side though.

Wrong on both sides. Union Jack faces towards leading edge of tail

Just checked my Avro Arrow,and you are right.

Which is kind of strange,as on the port side the Union Jack will be on the left,while on the starboard side it will be on the right side.

Never noticed this before.
