English Electric Lighting F/6 Finally finished.

Clifford Keesler Author
Thank You for your kind words Roland. They are not all scissors, most are hemostats. I used to be a Medic, so kind of collected them over the years. I use them to hold parts while painting.

Slavo Hazucha
Great finish, you even did the topside fuel-tank version 👍 Very nice redcoat Lightning!

Neuling
I agree with Slawo.

Clifford Keesler Author
Thank you very much Slavo and Neuling. I am very glad you like it. I had a hard time deciding which color scheme to do, but chose this one as I have not seen many in it. Seems like everyone chooses the NMF schemes.

Nathan Dempsey
Nice finish Clifford. I like that color scheme with the top mounted fuel tanks. I definitely want to build mine in a grey scheme now.

Not BMF? Heretics! All of you! 😄 (Weird thing is I like the one with solid green upper surface most - so I'm a heretic too....) Nice version of the late lo vis colours, Stormrider.

James C
Nicely done Clifford. I've not seen that sort of external tank configuration before either. Very interesting 👍

Clifford Keesler Author
Thank you very much Nathan, playtime 222 and Jim C for your kind words. @ Nathan, I thought the Grey scheme was very cool. It was different from what you normally see.

Clifford Keesler Author
Playtime 222, I think the F6 was the only version that carried that tank configuration. But not 100% sure. The Saudi's bought a version that could carry underwing tanks or bombs.

Juergen Klinglhuber
Nice F6. I currently glueing a 1/72 F6 in the same paint scheme. Coincidently the red turned out "darker" as I thought it should be - but I am relieved now to see your red looks quite similar. Nice work 👍

Clifford Keesler Author
Thank you very much Juergen. I think the red was supposed to be scarlet but all I could find was British crimson.

playtime 222
There is no version with underwing tanks 😄 Turn your model over and look at where the uc bays are 😄 And yes, I think the overwing tanks were originally for the Saudis.

F3, F6, F53 and T55 could use EFTs according to Modellers Data File.

Clifford Keesler Author
I stand corrected sir. Somehow I got the idea that they had developed a underwing system for the Saudi's.

While on the subject of fuel - have you heard the joke Q - 'How does one obtain a lightning?' A- Simply wait near Binbrook and wait for one to run out of fuel.

Clifford Keesler Author
That's a good one.
