Kerry COXThis looks to be a most fascinating build Christian. From what I have seen in the 'plumbing' department, it will be good. 🙂

Christian Lehmann АвторMany thank's for your kind comments mates. The base is not finishey yet => some pics will follw. But when I arrive at home from work it is dark in germany. So the only chance to take some photos without flash is at the week end. Because I will be at the exhibition in Ried next WE it will last some time till I can take them.

Kerry COXIf it's snowing there now, Don't go near yellow snow LOL 🙂 Looking forward to the pics mate.

Kerry COXLOL. Do I REALLY have to explain that one Mike ? 🙂 I wouldn't eat it :-/

Christian Lehmann АвторThanks again.
@ Bill: No real problems. It seems tha not all of the pannel lines are correct but this is something for nitpickers. The grey putty on the pictures is Mr.Surfacer 500 which was enough to close the gaps. On on two position (rear cockpit wall and front wheel weel) it was necessary to use Tamiyas white putty. To build a T.4 the cable ducts at each fuselage side have to be shortened. One problem ocuured at the end of the build when the seats did not fit inside the cockpit because of the seat belt buckles at the side of the seats made the seats to wide. I removed the non visible parts of the belts to solve this.

Martyn FoxLovely model Christian. I've just bought this kit for my stash and when I get round to building it,it will be my first jet kit. Sometimes it's good to build something different🙂

Stefan FraundorferHallo Lemmy! Hab die Lightning schon auf der Seite vom Thomas gesehen und freue mich drauf sie in Ried live bewundern zu können. Ein sehr schönes Modell mit super Alterung.

Christian Lehmann Автор@Stefan: Wann reist ihr an?
@ Matyn: Same with me. Britisch jets are normally not my subject but this kit has everything you need to build a well detailed o.o.b model and needs only small improvements.

Stefan FraundorferWir werden am Samstag um ca. 7.00 da sein. Von Linz brauchen wir nur etwa eine Stunde Fahrtzeit.

Kerry COXWorth every minute of waiting for the final photos. A big congrats Christian. 🙂 Really really nice to see.

Ulf PetersenVery fine build of a very ugly jet (dont feel offended, just my personal opinion. 😉 )! 👍
24 November 2014, 13:47
Christian Lehmann АвторThank's again.
@Ulf: Not the nicest but one of the most interestkng designs.
24 November 2014, 16:11
Dirk HeyerIst sehr schön geworden.
Btw. British aircrafts are not ugly, in other words they are curious/strange!!!
🙂

Christian Lehmann АвторThank´s Bill.
Danke Dirk. Ja, "strange" ist der rchtige Ausdruck. Für die hübschen jets sind die Franzosen ( mirage) zuständig.

Aris GreyWow what a lightning man. Looks great and on that display even more. Didn't know that these kits come with all that extras. How is the shape of the kit?
10 December 2014, 00:22
Christian Lehmann АвторThank's for your kind comments.
@Aris:The fit is o.k. Not as good as from amainstrem company like Tamiya or Airfix but nothing that can't be solved.

Christian Lehmann АвторThank's Guido. The second Lightning is under construction yet.

Christian Lehmann АвторDanke Stefan. Glückwünsche auch an dich für den Preis für das beste Wingman model.
20 December 2014, 16:28
Roland SachsenhoferIch gratuliere Christian! Sowohl zum Sieg als auch zu diesem herrlichen Modell; einfach eine Augenweide und eine Quelle der Inspiration.
20 December 2014, 18:51
Christian Lehmann АвторDanke Roland! Aber übertreibe nicht. Du machst mich ganz verlegen 😳

Album info
This is the Sword Kit. The ratio between price and what you get when yo buy this kit is excelent. You get PU seats and nozzles as well as PE parts for the cockpit and antennas. The fit is o.k. with some unaccuracies at the nose cone front wheel bay section.
The Decals adhere very well. I started to build this kit in june but did not have the time to post some pics.
Now it is time to do this.
