The wing tanks are not include in the kit although the F9F-5 always had them since they were built into the wings |

I did not use the kit decals since I felt they were oversize. The model is around 1/30 scale but I used a 1/48 set which I think looks okay. It is one of the aircraft from the movie Bridges at Toko-Ri |

I painted the supplied pilot. He is kind of silly looking but that is the way he is cast |

Bottom view. I did detail the main landing gears since the kit only included wire struts |

Painting completed. I painted the antiglare panel and then masked it to keep it flat |
