What he said -- very much so. I also did the Viggen camo once upon a time, but in 1/72 scale. I'm not ashamed to admit that I drew it onto the model first. What a job! And you have done it so very well.vacant wrote:Great job with the painting. It's a colour scheme I have also hand painted so I know how hard it is to do. You have done it to perfection.
Also nice to see the characteristic Flygvapnet green AAMs. A lot of modellers have them the more usual white, or even grey. Not quite sure why the Swedes painted them green, but I suspect it had something to do with their policy of dispersed basing and the feeling that the white would be too visible -- but I could be spouting nonsense. Anyone know for sure?
