    I love the South African markings, Spiros (@fiveten). They look really nice against the all-metal finish. Now I really want to go build my 2 1/72 F-86s.

    On her feet, wing tanks attached, cockpit finalized, have to scratch a pitot, because, of course, I have lost the original 😁

    I think this is one of the more attractive schemes from Korea, and you have pulled it off perfectly, Spiros (@fiveten). The landing gear can be a little fiddly on 1/72 Sabres, but the gear looks perfect. You will be done soon.

    Nice work Spiros (@fiveten). I have to say the Sabre looks a lot better when seen from the top forward angle like your last photo.

    Landing gear was not as easy to work as in 1/48, but was nicely designed by Hobby Boss, making its installation a breeze.

    I agree, the Sabre looks best when seen from top forward.
