First finished build for the year and I got it done in a week!

I had to close up the gear doors as I had used the gear on another build. The doors ranged in undersized for the nose, correct size for the main flipper doors to oversize for the gear legs.

Decals are OOB and went on OK, the stand is from Italeri I think.

The looks awesome Ray. I like those Hobbyboss kits. Not perfect for the rivet counters but I reckon they're great. You've done a cracker job on this one :)

PS: how come the SAAF managed to get access to F-86s during the Korean War, but we didn't???
