hahaha... rectified already. had some problems fitting it in earlier that in my overzealous attempt, sikit bengkok. but no worries, it's soft plastic and rectifiable.

i personally don't fancy the stealth jets. dull colour schemes regardless of squadron. kinda like change a few alphabets and numbers here and there and voila! it's a different squadron altogether. still prefer the teen series...

wah... self assembly + excellent paintjob!

don't mind me asking, what did you use to enhance the panel lines?

aeroz, i was thinking of using the panel line accent (grey) to enhance the panel lines of my diecast... but not sure whether the enamel thinner will react with the paint. any idea?

thanks, aeroz! the gundam marker looks more promising for a klutz such as i

dunno whether i will ever get around to actually doing it as i don't have the skills nor the patience, and wouldn't want to end up with a half-painted model! and also am at odds as to which model is going to end up as my lab rat

problem is... all also favourite

guna pensil 5b first can?

ribuan terima kasih! now to get myself that marker and find myself a lab rat...

only enhance panel lines la. itu pun i ady kalo buat ni...

thanks for the words of encouragement, but i know myself la. memang tak boleh harap. sure halfway fed up ady either kit left to rot or simply simply do...

my first fov arrived: f14 vf32 swordsmen. i can say with absolute certainty the paintjob sucks! but in terms of the mould, yups... cw contender. if only ww had fov moulds then they'd be on par with cw! too bad ww tutup kedai already...

some examples of the shoddy workmanship:

no need sweat first ya. at first glance it looks awesome. it only reveals its paintwork flaws upon closer inspection... uneven layers on the missiles, unrefined canopy lining, incomplete painting at the exhaust etc. if you had the skills to touch-up this model, it'll be excellent! it doesn't require panel lining enhancement though... otherwise i would've found my perfect lab rat.

ya lor... me read many things about fov also but since i like f14s, i also order and tengok sendiri how their quality. my fov f15e and f/a18e should be arriving next week. kira one fov for each model cukuplah. cw's red rippers should be arriving next week also but what me really looking forward to is their vf103 santacat which is rumoured to be out in nov '14!

buy! buy! buy!

yes! the vampire has landed!

without doubt, there is a reason why century wings command such high prices as this model turned out to be near perfect for me (only some minor difficulty in attaching the sidewinders but nothing a bit of sandpapering couldn't remedy). in all honesty, my witty wing's vf103 jolly rogers came pretty close to being near perfect too but the detailing on this model is awesome. i think if you just looked at witty wings, they're awesome on their own... but placed side by side with a century wings, only then will its deficiencies appear, subtle as it may be. and yes, there's that perennial "problem" with witty wings... the landing gear comes in multiple parts

comrade blu3hamm3r... if there's one word to describe your collection, it would be "awesome"! while it may be true with regard to detail and quality, witty does have a far more extensive selection than century. and they also have my next favorite line of fighter jets... the f/a-18e/f super hornets. but my eyes are always on century's latest releases (past releases have become ridiculously overpriced, imho).

waiting... waiting...
