My vintage resin AMX

And off we go 

A bit of merciless macro photography 😉 

Lots of flash everywhere 🙁 

Fuselage closed, lots of sanding ahead - started from the nose. 

This is Warrior Model's hideous exhaust proposal 😄 Will have to scratch sth 

Closed the cockpit and started the wings. 

And the stabilisers followed. 

Prepared some place for the exhaust pipe. 

Lots of bubbles on the undersides 🙁 

Next stage: blending in the rudder and the canopy. 

 

 

So I reattached the canopy 

And filled the rudder root 

Then another round of primer 

Some corrections will definitely be needed 

 

Another canopy-blending session 

Aaaand on its own legs for the very first time! 

So, looking carefully at this picture I found out the landing gear geometry is simply wrong in this kit. 

Therefore it needed some correction: back-before, front - after. 

Adding the bits and pieces... 

... here and there. 

Ready for colouring me thinks. 

Ready for colouring me thinks. 

Camo grey is done, next mode Eagle grey on top. 

 

Camo grey is done, next mode Eagle grey on top. 

 

Main colours added, couple of corrections still needed on the light grey, where the masks peeled off some paint. 

Reinforcements have arrived! 

More scratchbuilding... 

Finally on her own wheels 

Reinforcements have arrived 👍 

Adding all the bits and pieces 

Once again lots of kudos to Davide! 👍 

And now I have to think how to get rid of it 🙁 

You can now scroll back to pic #16 🙁 

Doesn't feel like a lot of gain 🤔 

 

 

 

The last stretch 

In the background the traces of PLZ/PLN redenomination can be seen, it was 1995! 

 

You can clearly see the kit's geometry issues 

 

 

 

 

Aaaand back to the hangar
