Tamiya F-35B Build

Started this before Christmas and haven’t got much else done, so here is the progress so far.  Really nice kit to build and it fallls together really well.

Very nice Jace! Excellent detail work, and looks like you've got a lot of the hard work behind you. Are you doing it in flight? gear up?

Thanks, I am doing a hybrid vertical landing, with the mains compresses and the nose  gear extended as if it has just touched down

Nice work there Jason, any issues with posting pictures etc just shout out, I've increased the image limits to 4MB photos, the site is now hosted in NZ and has unlimited storage, I don't want to test the whole unlimited but we should be good for a long while yet.
If you find issues with posting enough images in a single post, shout.
Other than that, thanks for being the first to post their work.

Very nice build going on here… following! Those decals look lovely…were they hard to lay in there?

Nope, they went down great, bit of heat and micro sol, then a quick semi gloss over coat.  

Nice progress.

Makes me want to get on with mine, but need to get some other stuff out of the way first.

Thanks for the technique add… I used to get terribly confused with how to properly use Micro Sol and Set, lol, but it really has been a big game changer for me, Do you gloss coat the area on the model before you lay your decals? …I found it a big bonus for my builds in fighting off silvering.
