Some old Stealth Fighters

[MartG]

I was looking through the loft for something today, and came across these three kits I built 10 or so years ago, and thought I'd share them with you – all are 1/48

[MartG]

Revell F-19 Stealth

[MartG]

Italeri F-19 Stealth - 617 Sqn RAF

[MartG]

Italeri Mig-37 Ferret E

Comparison of the two F-19s

Just started my Italeri 'Stealth'...... you won't believe the colour scheme I've got in mind........

BbbbbWahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaa !

Cool !

I never used to like that Ferret, but the more I see it.......also digging the different F-19s. Of course I like the RAF one, but the US one looks better to me, as all the markings really add to the bland paint.

The Revell kit originated with Arii in Japan and the original Japanese kit was also available as a two-seater (guess who has both single- and two-seat versions in his stash?).

I've been on E-devil for the Sting Bat for over a year now and still no luck. I saw it once but it went for almost 40 bucks.

REVELL 1/48 F-19?  

I've never heard of or seen one of these. I've got 2 of the Italeri/Testors and a Monogram kit but not the Revell. Are you sure it's not a 1/144 you've just cleverly PhotoShopped or artfully snapped?

Nice work on all three kits!

Gary, look at KingKit.co.uk for your Stingbat. £6.99 plus postage.

i always kinda liked the little F-19 kit.
to bad it isnt real, would make a nice F-5 Replacement to compete with the JSF.
i wonder what it would be if this was a "Low-Budget" fighter like the F-5 was  B)

My one is overall white with black stripes. I call it the my Siberian Tiger scheme.

Hey Lance..... Any (more) build issues with the kit, I should know about - I've already spent a full hour blending the bl**dy engine inlets into the fus !!

Here's a wee clue for the colour scheme:

Think late evening/twighlight colours:

Think Radish/Greg style fractural camo:  

and absolutely NO dayglo anywhere  

Ohh yeah, and JASDF roudels and badgework !

Can't think of any build issues Ian, from what I remember it was a very stright forward build.
