Yes, I like this
I’m making more, I’m in the process of making the f15
F-15 Eagle
seekers
Aye that’s pretty good
Those would make amazing gifts
if ya want I can make instructions and send the stud.io file
calculated price for all 3 is ~$156
Nah I’m alr blowing a ton of cash on robots
oki
Oh that’s a lot more than I thought it would be - if that just the colors being a pain?
also i checked,
starsream ~$44
thundercracker ~$62
skywarp ~$50.80
normal colors ~$61.32
the other thing is i think stud.io goes off of new part prices
not used
@stoic reef ^
lemme check all grey instead of grey + sand blue
I would not have guessed in a million years that light blueish gray would be more proxy than like - blue
all grey ~$53.48
the other thing is the seekers have one less drop tank and none of the 4 missiles
Ah
they just have the 2 drop tanks
The air intakes on the bottom of that are fabulous btw
thanks, they were kinda easy bc the entire engine system on the 29 is just like
toob
Toob
so anyway, im trying to do a cycle of american - russian - american and so on, so the next thing i think ill do is either the mig 25 or mig 31
probably mig 25 bc thats what the f15 was built to combat
Ok it’ll take me a bit but I can put together some instructions then i can send the stud.I’m file if u want
MIG-25
Nice looks great
A-10
damn thats good
Excellent
SU-25
holy crap
Lemme check when I get back to my room
I locked myself out and the RA can’t get to the spare key
about $48.90
Not bad
According to Stud.io, my custom bonsai tree is $479.99
estimated
Lego Ideas? Not sure, but there is an official set
Not sure if its flagged under Ideas
ah
However, mine turns it up to 11
it seemed like an ideas box but i didnt get a good look
sorry, this is ur thread
nah ur good dw
F-16
SU-33
some concepts for like lego rereleasing these sets as two packs based on like class
first up: superiority fighters
maneuverability fighters
CAS fighters
naval fighters
Could you perhaps do a Harrier
It’ll be on the vote for the next jet project
I’ll put that up tomorrow
heres the list of canidates:
F111
F14
F4
F35
F22
Harrier
Nice.
Nice planes. Have you thought about doing a helicopter series?
So I’m planning on doing an Apache and a Blackhawk because of popular demand, but I’m trying to finish the America vs Russia jet series first
Cause I also want to do ground vehicles
And people really want European jets too
F111 sounds cool
id love to see either an F-111 or the harrier
alsoo these are still fantastic
F-4
Ooh, this is great
niiiice
sick
It’s a botanical right?
That sounds right
I don't know if it ever originated from Ideas
I think its a Lego original
why wouldnt what be?
The bonsai be an original
MIG-21
WOW! Not a scale i normally build in, but this stuff is awesome!
i mean i made minifigs scale too lol
#1174803362743595018
@oblique osprey
Oohh yes thank you
F-111
thats fuckin lit
those things look so much smaller in renders than they do in studio
D’awwwww
lol ty
We love trans robot
oh hell yeah thats awesome
SU-24
I love your F35. Phenomenal work!
F111 and its variants are underrated
F-22
friking SICK
Wohhh
That one is prolly my fav
Same, f111 is probably one of my fav planes, irl and in lego heh
Make a blackbird
Or a Valkyrie bomber
SU-57
only making fighters rn
^
Why thoooo
Rly Cool btw
because its the russian vs american fighters series
dw im almost done with it then well move on to other stuff
Why is that an unpopular opinion
Lotsa people dunk on it
Because its russian
I just like it because it looks cool hehe
Oh
F-35A
Coool
Oh my God, it even has a missile bay
J-20
Somehow this one looks better than the actual one
Oh that’s prettty
AV-8B
su 27 is planned actually as the counterpart to the f14 which ill make after the yak 38 as the counterpart to the harrier
Amazing
though theres a possibility that i wont do the 27 since i already did the su 33 and mig 29, and people are asking me to change ot to mavericks f14 and the "mig 28"
Fair
tbh the series of US vs east is ending after the f14 and its counterpart, then im doing some helicopters and then the top 10 best european fighter jets then cargo/e w planes
Omgoodness you should do the c-5 galaxy for one of your cargo planes
Also CH-54 Tarhe is a very cool heavy lift helicopter
Yes, yes it would be
Ch-54 is just a militarized (but older) S-64
i dont want to do too many, i only plan on apache cobra and blackhawk tbh
YAK-38
f35's grandpa
NO NO we are not spreading this disinformation
aw
neat
Oh that’s really cool
Looks good
one of the slopes for the cockpit didnt come in tho :<
Gah damn dats epic
i really thought it would be smaller
i wonder how bog the f15 would be
damn u got some really good builds @unreal kindle
all great quality esspecaily for their size
thx
im a huge fan of micro builds and aviation and u do both very well
ye! theyre on scale with microfigures actually
these guys
(not nanofig)
How could I forget microfigs?
@herewas thinking of making a stand for the f4 i got, hows this? its supposed to be going over a stream and the figs in the front are supposed to be pilots
@unreal kindle tried to tag everyone! 🤣
https://media.tenor.com/images/08df88b0744a0d824273f15bdd2a9c5e/tenor.gif
coool
F-14
SU-27
since I finally finished the US vs East series, I'm gonna go through the doubles of their counterparts, as a sort of runback, in order of when I made them
FIGHTERS OF MODERN NAVYS
RACE TO THE INTERCEPTORS
CLOSE AIR SUPPORT
KINGS OF MANEUVERABILITY
SKIES OF VIETNAM
FIGHTER BOMBER AND ELECTRONIC WARFARE
DOOR TO 5TH GENERATION
FIGHTERS OF THE FUTURE
VERTICAL TAKE OFF AND LANDING
STARS OF THE SCREEN
someone needs to make a AC7/WT mod with these
AH-1Z
UH-60
Love that one
Cool approach on the front gun
This looks fantastic. Can you make a 1:1 scale model?
All of these are awesome.
I’ll be getting started on top 10 European fighters soon dw
#10 - English Electric Lightning
Bit of a chonker
Fr, but it is irl too
i mean literally look it up it looks like a pregnant mig 21 lmao
bro had all of the christmas dinner
tbh im glad a mod finally noticed my thread ^w^
#9 - Hawker Hunter
F-35 triplets
insteructions when
gonna start redoing these to fix innaccuracies and problems i realized
in alphabetical order
also giving them all landing gear
so to start
Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II
McDonnell Douglas AV-8B Harrier II
General Dynamics–Grumman EF-111A Raven
McDonnell Douglas F-4B Phantom II
McDonnell Douglas F-4D Phantom II
Grumman F-14 Tomcat
McDonnell Douglas F-15C Eagle
McDonnell Douglas F-15E Strike Eagle
General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon
Oh that one is amazing
Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor
i love the way you made you made the afterburners
Damn this entire thread is epic. I LOVE military aircraft.
exactly why i wish lego didnt hav that no military related sets rule
tbh given the scale and parts use, these would probs be mid price range creator sets
yet worth almost every cent
agreed, somehow creator 3 in 1 always gets away with selling legit military vehicles by just using a bright color palete
if i could make an assumption, id say like somewhere between 30$-60$
yeah thats my estimate ttoo
i was just looking through here for some inspiration and i realised something for the engines, as an option that i thought would perhaps look good
@unreal kindle ^
just maybe
Idk why your replying to my message lol
yea i realised it was your message as soon as i sent it 😭
thats why i tagged him after
Her
her
@unreal kindle i rebuilt your SU27, from the 2 image's youve sent, i have added some additions, you may like these but im not sure. ill leave them here for you to rate
- a gun
- Airbrake
oh shit nice!
my russian jets arent that good tbh so thanks alot for improving on them
i didnt know thats how the 27s gun is
but it looks like it might be on the wrong side?
whoops
ill switch that
btw check dms
we need to make a good Gripen C
oooooo
👀
Dayyum man
This is gonna be something good I think
I hope so. The gripen is am just amazing
Maybe i channange myself too. I try to build it soon.
Lockheed Martin F-35A Lightning II
Lockheed Martin F-35B Lightning II
i adjusted the size to fit this channel, 1:72
wings and nose are done, also i had finished one air intake
tail also done
yea yea. the 1:72 is amazing
❤️
🤨
german luftwaffe, been used from WW2
Isn't this the iron cross
Just want to be clear it's fine to be used in mocs unless you make it weird
thats why i sent it, to check if it was okay
If you had actual concerns, you should have opened a /ticket
"uh oh" is making it weird
yea fair, i didnt think about that
I wondering about how it is pissible to make the tail with plates
You can
However that is easier to do on planes with a double tail, like the F18, F14, or the Su27 etc
Since then you can use hinges to angle the tail as wanted, however with a plane with a single tail, like the Gripen, the tail will off center and look really goofy
True
Lockheed F-117 Nighthawk
Panavia Tornado with variable Sweep wings and working elevators
@unreal kindle i built a functional stand for the SU27
and equipped it with missiles
That’s magnificent
Thanks! I'm trying to get the slanted nose however thats a little more tricky then expected
my slanted nose has worked in Studio, now gotta hope it works IRL too
oh sorry ping btw
Oh that looks great
McDonnell Douglas F/A-18 Hornet
Boeing F/A-18E/F Super Hornet
Chengdu J-20
love that fr
goes hard
i made this render as a joke, turned out way better then expected
im thinking of making a KC-10 or a E-3 Sentry next
air refueling aircraft or the AWACS
Eyyy... i cant send photos... I built my version of the Gripen C, but i cant send it here...
Oh just talk in chats till u can
Ah, okey
cant wait to see it tho
im glad this can become a group thing
I'm very curios to see what you came up with
Oh that one is amazing
The air intakes on that one are great
I FINALLY GOT EARLY JETS IN WT LETS GOOOO
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOO
That's like 7.3? Or no
I'm starting to doubt myself if I can complete this
7.0, got the f84
Let's goooooo
Is it allowed to send rebrickable links here?
sure!
can u send photos already or no
Nah...
Idk what level i need to reach to be able to send pictures
I could talk much more if i would be able to send pics, bc they literally a good base to start a conversation.
But judt randomly joining to a talk, its like... meh...
lvl 5
go to #playground♟ and do /rank
Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-21
the final version os much cooler from my rebrickable post
send link
I wanna clear this up, that symbol has been used as a German medal scince 1813, it is not a nazi symbol it was used in wwi and is still used today. Just because it was used in wwii does not make it evil
Yes, we know
based off of what was said I just wanted to clear it up for anyone reading the post
I know, I was joking😁
This is a badass channel. Kind of turned into a general chat for aircraft MOCs XD
Yea, but u know why right?
Bc whos not loveing lego jet fighters?
I think its way more enjoyable than putting together a mock-up with infinite parts
Huge time line to build, and really precise hands to make it perfect
The lego jets are way more fun, with infinite possibilities.
And its cool to see how others make their own mocs for these machines
ayo lowkey facts
Su-47 Berkut?
i was thinking about that, however idk how to make the forward swept wings
Not a good thing
Suffering is only just beginning
Radar dome of the E3 Sentry finally done
nice
came up with a design for the main wings, made them foldable as well of course
ive opted for using ball joints instead of hinges, jsut bcs ball joints have a little more friction and can therefore hold the weight of the wing properly without collapsing on itself
the engines will be mounted right beside the balljoint with a width of 2 studs
What on earth is that
Plane
Im guessing its like a surveillance plane for the navy because of that disc on top
its the US Nave E-2D Advanced Hawkeye
also called an AWACS ( Airborne Warning And Control System)
its the naval version of the E-3 sentry, which is a modified version of the boeing 707, but obviously that cant operate from aircraft carriers and this one can. thats why i has the foldable wings, so it uses less space on the deck. besides that they have reinforced landinggears so the catapult wont rip it from the body, and they installed an arrestorhook, so they can land on the deck and grab the arrestorcables with that hook and slow down insanely fast without plummeting into the deep blue darkness below
correct!
that disc is basically a big fk radar, aka rotodome, it can visualise 3d models of aircraft in the airspace where operated, friendlies, and enemies
these AWACS' give huge amounts of input in military operations, because they can pick up enemies way before the friendly jets can
therefore giving them a huge advantage against the enemies, being able to spot them from hundreds of miles away
far further then the enemies can spot you
yep figured
good guess, not many people know that
well i am a jet person
Ah I see, same same
ooh ive got a few 1 is f-15e 2 is f-18 legacy hornet 3 is f-111
oooooo
f15 always goes hard
finished the wings, might adjust some things there and there, but for now they are done
Ooh niice
tyty
got the tail done too, since that isnt a difficult thing on the E2-d
Alright nice but isn't that disc a bit too low now?
it is, however i placed that there for a reference of the scale, and it is quite a bit too small, so ill have to build a custom one
ah alright then
i need to continue working it, i have left it abandoned for a while now
Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-23
Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-25
Mikoyan MiG-27
show top down 👀
hot
hooowee
W
show top down on the 23
It’s the same as the 27 but I’ll get it when I get home
na im still working on my E-2D hawkeye
we good
love it tho
Mikoyan MiG-29
Mikoyan MiG-31
I need to learn from you yk legit everything
meh i just do basic shit but yeah hmu ig
I see
Mikoyan MiG-35
Clean as always
Sukhoi Su-24
Are you building all these??
no, using stud.io
no its a free program its made by bricklink you can find it on their website
Sukhoi Su-24MP
Sukhoi Su-25
Bet
dw the su27 is gonna be awesome
👀
I got a design for the missiles if you need those
oh actually that may help
actually
i think i got it
Sukhoi Su-27
these are amazing
oh and how you got the angles are interesting
also thats huge for a scale model
yeah the flankers are huge
just a hing
oh thats interesting i thought thats where the cockpit was attached
very dope, love it, however personally id change the gun
id put it more back in the 1x1 tile
for a quick project in between im working on a F8-Crusader myself right now
turning out pretty dope so far
F8-Crusader
you thinking abt adding folding wings?
Maybe
I probably will, however I need to figure out how to without messing up the pylons
Sukhoi Su-30
Sukhoi Su-33
yeah it was hard but surprisingly its on the real one

youre selling these
??
do like invisible fighters, F22-Su57
although...
the su57 isnt quite invisible cuz of its size, but yk what i mean
and perhaps when i finish my E-2D advanced hawkeye, you could do air reconnaissance
just some brainstorming
Yeah it’s referencing mihaly from ace combat 7
Oh yeah that’s planned by I was gonna call it door to 5th generation
Nah just making little matches as if it were sold by Lego
Dope
Oooooo

"A Bit Unfair Part 1"
just a teeny bit
i mean this vs stealth to maneuvrebility
yeah but the su35 isnt very maneuverable either its an air superiority
thats true
but is the 35 still 1:72?
cuz that seems more like 1:45 ish
final size has somewhat been established
oh yeah it is flankers are just huge
nice

and i wanna make so that the wings actually fold on top of it like the actual thing
good luck lol
like this
yeye ik
i mean ig a 1stud connection could do the trick
maybe a turntable?
or im going to have to mess around with snot stuff to get a technic pin in there somehow
hmm
those dont have enough friction, i dont want them to go all over the place

@bleak dagger what do you think of these btw?
im having fun with them
yes yes yes yes yes thats awesome for a quick project even if it isnt finished yet
Berlin wall included got me dead😭😭
Yessirrrrrr
I've build some small ones irl too but those are more 1:120 scale
It's dope
Don't matter if they're smaller they'll still be cool
Tho Tbf a different scale may warrant a different thread
That's what I got irl
That's valid
Just showing them tho
And then I'll continue in 1.72
Fair
Hind right?
It's a mix of a few ngl
A bit of a mix between cobra, viper apache
Ah very neat
Ah ok, i thought it had 2 cockpits that’s why i guessed hind lol
Also I mean a cobra is a viper
I based that on a the apache, cuz the apache has that too
Oh fair i thought they were separate the Apache had them together
No, however I did try to make an hind first, but I realised I don't got the bricks for it and I don't have the skill😁
I think you could just call it a viper if you gave it landing struts
Yea true
I believe i did
all the helos i did here
Could just be me tripping but isn't the cockpit on the cobra a little too tall?
Just wondering
best way i could represent this tbh
ye
Hind next?!?!
oh i was just gonna end at those 3 lol
There is other dope helo hol on lemme find it
The Sikorsky S64
Woa
This thing would be sick too have ngl
You are gonna upload all of this "sets"?
Oh if you want the file for any of them I can send them i thought I couldn’t share files here
I mean, upload to rebrickable, or anything
But this one is cool
Oh ye probably
finished the nose and added a refueling boom
ofc
I WANNA DO A RENDER WITH IT
The blackbird is gorgeous
you mean the nighthawk?
V22 is almost doneeee
arghhh ive been fucking with the nose for hours
nice!
we could do like a 'kit' with the V22 and F16 👀
troop protection
ooh i like it!
want my f16 model?
working on my target exclusive top gun set rn
f14 vs "mig 28"
its finally done
Yes
I finished the V22
Ooooh lemme see lemme see
hold please while i make some renders
ill send them when theyre all done

Yeah that one was the one I felt confident having the most clear cut winner
It's awesome
Im thinking of other aircraft I can make, but I cant think of any....
Perhaps some WW2 era stuff?
Like spitfires and mustangs
Or even 262's
Maybe, i kinda have been staying away from prop planes because they bore me so maybe that might be a good way to cover bases
valid
did you ever build a F-104 Starfighter?
I have not, probs gonna build an a4 Skyhawk next so I can make a toys r us exclusive “skies of the Falklands sets
Have you done the Sukhou Su-34?
Or how about the Mitsubishi F2 used by the Japanese Air Force.
@lofty sapphire it's not the 2 seater, but yea
We have an F16
Oooo I was thinking of an A4 But I decided to go for the J35

"Skies of The Falklands"
hawt
my lego missile cruiser somewhat scales well to this, i just realized that
its in a little smaller scale tho, prob more like 1:74 or 76
looking at the helicopter the scale difference is notable
ch 53e super stallion?
or inspiration for that
1:72 scale ships are wayyy bigger, this is probably more like 1:120
new project: Kfir
Intersting. An Israeli-licensed Dassault Mirage 5 in LEGO.
hahah yea
refueling arm
this is 1:150
so 1:72 is gonna be massive
nevermind lol im not to versed in scale
also the heli is loosely based of the blackhawk and the super stallion
the ship itself is prob about 2 ft long, the lego one obviously
thats okay, basically the bigger the scale number, the smaller the model
and vice versa
although the ship is meant to be small, s little shorter than a triconderoga class destroyer
thats cool tho
personally im working on the IAI Kfir
raahhhhhh
I've not been making any progress due to busy weeks but this is what I got so far
I opted for a desert camouflage over the basic gray, which looks awesome, but I thought this makes it a little more ✨ accurate ✨
However I'm not yet sure about the nose
Ayo this thread kinda dead
i genually am just too tired to respond to anything on this app at this point
but its a cool progress tho
Good question, I wouldn't know, it's the minifig that came with the saturn V
I also used it in my V22 Osprey
That Osprey is great
Though
Lego aircraft carrier made by Jim beute is great for that fig
thanks man! appreciate it!
thats gotta be a huge ship then
FYI we are having a military MOC contest if you guys are interested. These builds totally fit the theme.
yessir! im hyped af
oh when is it?
Go to #contest-rules-old, read them, react to the
so you can gain access to the rest of the channels. I'll probably open the contest in the next couple days.
English Electric Lightning
i see a french flat tho
RAF commonly has red white and blue stripes on its tails that can look like a French flag
even though it is british
remember the kfir i was working on? i didnt work on it a long long time but i just started working on it again and i got the nose done lmao
fun lol
im act quite happy with how it turned out
do the ones like my failed model of it maybe?
huh?
i dont recall saying that
thx!
f4 phantom nose maybe?
hmmm
you see what im saying?
lemme try
@bleak dagger maybe do this like i did with the flankes
only angle the nose not the whole front tho
probs the best your getting
yea probably
however now i needa do the sides of it
which is even worse with the intake
hmmmm
Hawker Hunter F.6
hot
at this point, youre gonna have to be my coach 🤣
Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-23MF
https://www.instagram.com/breadyo1k/ Finally started consolidating all these to one place
SEPECAT Jaguar
lemme check that ig rq
hear me out... what if i make a custom pfp logo
cuz i got my own ig with a custom logo
i could do the same for you
maybe
is studio considered graphic design
idk
@bleak dagger tornado next, should i make a german or british one do you think?
also if i do british should i do the mig eater?
ik but which countrie's should i do
@unreal kindle 👀
thx!
some other colors perhaps?
what colors do you like or would you want on this
perhaps some pink
\
perhaps a different font
Panavia Tornado
yea budddyyyyyy
KFIR finally done
nose can definitely use some adjustments here and there
but it works for now
Thanks! It can use some refining here and there, but it works for now
Fatass
That doesn’t work irl
I already swapped it
To where it should work
Thank you! It could def be better but it works
im not sure if im missing the obvious but it looks like it should work to me
I think the clip would collide with the tile at the bottom
It's not a clip anymore😈😈
I changed it
I know, you said you did
Oh
How many fighter jet MOCs do you have now in your collection and what are some you are yet to create?
Question: are the instructions/brick lists for these linked somewhere? I definitely want to build quite a few of these after my current project.
not nessacarily,
however i do have instructions to a SU27
i have them somewhere, idk where tho 👀
@mystic forum I found the instructions if you want them
NICE!
Yes I'd def be interested in a handful of them for sure! (F15, a10, F22, Apache, etc).
I only have access to the SU27, V22, F8 corsair
Aswell as the Eurofighter Typhoon
However if you want these instructions I'll have to make them still
The Su27 is the only one I have finished
V22 would be awesome thanks! Have a buddy who has worked on them.
bet, ill start working on the instructions tomorrow
Awesome dude thanks. Gives me a new project after I finish the Devastator SEC I'm working on. It's a monster.
I have instructions made for my f15, but I’ll have to go and make my f22 and a10 ones
Awesome. Again anything you got is like a bonus for me I'm just pumped to build them.
nice work
do u have instructions for it? i wanna pair it up with a moc of mine to take some pics
these are the instructions to the SU27
where da jets at
up
from here and up
Have you consider building any of the Saab jets, especially these two:
-Saab JAS 39 Gripen
-Saab 35 Draken
I did them both
@lofty sapphire
Very cool.
Thanks!
Awesome thanks.
I noticed 2 small mistakes, around step 7, where you add the spine, there has to a gray tile underneath, it'll be placed later on in the instructions, and as you build the cockpit and nose, keep the airbrake attached to the spine, because that's gonna be its only connection, unless you order an extra white 2x2 tile and manage to connect it
But the rest is accurate
and to connect the nose and cockpit better to the body, youll have to order the following piece
**The LEGO® part you requested is ** LEGO® part: #33909
the gray tile should go right behind the other 2
and the 2x2 plate w 2 studs should go here
where the dark gray and white tile connect
I have a Jas39 module on rebickable, if you are interested, i can send a link to you in dm.
why does this thread keep getting removed from my list 😭
I guess because of inactivity
Probably
either @unreal kindle is cooking something huge, or shes just not building anything 😂
Summer classes and work rn srry
At some point I’ll get back on the top 10 European fighters series, next is the l39 albatross
ooooo

Ok working on the l39 albatross again
YEAAAAHHHHHSSSS
im trying to build a giant gripen based of the lego concorde
so its going to be around 45cm wide
and around 80cm long
you have any tips for the landing gear?
45cm wide only?
Compared to 80cm in length
yes?
its 8,6m wide
and 15,2m long
but im basing it of the concorde
so the side pylons are gonna add some width
So you're basically making a gripen Concorde baby
they both have a delta desgin
so might as well use a proven lego desgin and modify it instead of making my own
45/8,6x15,2=80cm lenght
Yes but they're besides that not similar at all
79,5 to be exact
i know, but i can use the concorde internal base as a base for my gripen e
i also wanna make retractable gear
and the gripen body compared to wing is bigger
so ill have more room to play with than the concorde has
I have some pics of one I made in 1:72 scale
and im going to steal the idea of retracting gear by making the nozzle twisting
idk if thats good
cos im trying to make a 1:20 scale
as accurate as possible with lego
but sure, send it
that looks very good
Now you can see it's definitely not double as long as it is wide
So that's why I was like isn't your scale way off?
The gripen c 14,9m long 8,4m wide
You build it according to what you see
I build to how the blueprints are
So I also have to include the antenna
Each square equals to a 1x1 stud
Hmm..
Lemme see if I have a pic of the previous model I worked on trying to bring the gripen in LEGO (that model failed cos we just winged it)
With aesa radar and all
I’m also thinking of taking the war thunder model of the c and put e pictures next to it
Hmmm
It’s like trying to build the F2 but you only have an F16 model available
It’s close but that’s about it
Yea
I have all the gripen papers and measurements
So that’s also a big help
I gtg for a bit
I’ll be back soon
These are some I did too
These are some I did too
The draken looks amazing
@bleak dagger is there per chance a post channel where I can ask for help n things
Or just use the moc finished
Cos all the plans have been made
The scale has been set
So the preparations are all done
oooh wait
wip means work in progress
