[Captain Canada]

Is that ever cool. Great idea and usage of parts !

[NARSES2]

I think I've got my head around it ? The paintwork will bring it together

Wild. You plan to power the computer fans?

Wild. You plan to power the computer fans?

No, they will not be powered as they need 12V. I tried if they run at 3V as well (then I could have used some batteries), but they did not.

Nice idea! 

[nönöbär]

Everything is in place now and waiting for the paint job



Landing gear is also done, but will be added once the D28 is painted.

Looks good!

[Captain Canada]

It sure is. Great stuff.

[nönöbär]

A big step forward: The D28 is now painted, now all the detail work starts.
Landing gear has been added as well, so now it is standing on its own wheels:




Have to see if some more colors should be added.

Now I get it 

[Tophe]

Wonderful model! So unusual so nice!

[Captain Canada]

That looks way better than I thought it would. What a coat of paint can do eh ! Excellent stuff.

Sometimes, you start to build a model and you do not know that it ends as a What-If....

So I started a Saab 29 and while I wanted to build it in its original Swedish markings, the idea came up to make it a bit different.
To make a Swiss Saab J29CH 'Tönnli'

So here we go, the original Revell (Matchbox) model:


And what we have so far:

[Captain Canada]

Nice ! I've been wanting to build another one ever since someone posted all those pics of the funky whifs

[nönöbär]

The "Tönnli" now starts to look Swiss:



A few more decals missing.....
