Hello everyone
This is one of my last WIP's, not finished yet. I guess you all know very well this old kit, with his combination of rise and (deep) engraved panel lines. I'll do my best to do an USMC aircraft. It will be completely OOB.
Some pics with the assembling stage:

I've got a feeling this'll turn out pretty well. Good start, Bogdan. 🙂

Bogdan, looking forward to seeing this built, I've never seen the Matchbox Panther.

Looking good Bogdan, and a wellcome late entry to the group, I still have four to finish, one very close, almost did this one myself as a Blue Angel, later !

Great start to an F9 Panther. I really like this airplane as well as its sister ship, the Cougar. Looks good, Bogdan!

It's seems like I have a hard job to do to clear those air intakes joints. 🙁

I don't know how I missed this build... but I did. My apologies Bogdan.

It looks like you have a great start on a very welcome addition to "The Year of the Cat". One can never have too many Panther jets !

Welcome aboard, and I'll be looking forward to your next installment. 🙂 Hopefully the wing intake seams will not be too hard to fix.
