Ferenc SarkaThe best ever camo, was the camuflage of the Viggen. I love it. Looking good so far.

Jason MarsonI'm building this kit at the moment. You did a great job on the camo masking. I'm using a masking set from DN Models, but it hasn't made it any easier! 😂 The kit itself is beautiful with fantastic details for a 1/72 scale one. I'm definitely going to buy this in 1/48 soon, though not sure if I'll attempt the camo again, 😂.

Thomas KolbEvery time I see one of the Viggens with its lovely splinter camo, I feel the urge to start the ones in my stash. Beautiful work, especially considering the completely manual tape masking method!

Michael KohlMy mates said it all. Nice job.
The new kits from Special Hobby are really gems (I build the Super Mystere which was really lovely), but the more you go back the better a modeller you need be. That shows what an impressive development they made.

Sebastian Ågren AuthorThanks for all the kind words! 🙂
@Jason: I actually bought a masking kit at first as well, but I couldn't get it to fit and eventually managed to rip it.
@Michael: The Super looks cool as well! Would be nice if they released a Draken and Gripen as well. I haven't built any of their older kits, but this one had almost zero fit issues.

Thomas KolbMaybe it's not too late to add the missing datalink antenna just behind the vertical fin? 😉

Sebastian Ågren Author@Michael: For the camo I used Mr. Hobby H309, H58, H47 and Vallejo Air 71.057.
Im not that sure on what blue grey I used, but I think it was Vallejo Air 71.255.
