The kit goes together nicely, I am just slow...
Managed to get a decent silver coat down. Need to do a couple touchups in the cockpit.

Ready for decalling! Using a combination of the kit's and CanMilAir. Just glad there aren't as many as Spanjaard's Black Bunny Phantom!

First time I have used ALPS printed decals. Most of them went down not too bad. Not sure how to place the fuselage roundels..half of it is on the Air Brakes...

Decalling complete. Put on the leading edge slats. Looks OK to me... Now just to add the speed brakes, flaps, and drop tanks!

Finished. Quite happy with how it turned out. It was a little more work to drop the flaps and slats, but definately looks good.
My father flew Sabres with 427 Sqn, based in Zweibrucken, West Germany in the 1950s. Told him I built a model of the Mk.2 and he said " Nice, but I flew the Mk.5 and 6..." Got my next project figured out, I guess...

Thank you, all. I have another Sabre to finish as a Mk.2 then will do a Mk.5 and Mk.6..
