1/48 Tamiya F-35C Lightning II: A look inside the box

[@Mike-mm4mx]

am still waiting for release in UK looks amazing. Might be an idea to display it over a mirror to see all that weapons bay detail!

[@RWHobbies]

Good idea!

@RW Hobbies do not sand the canopy seams. They are intentional because the represent the detonation cord for the canopy ejection system you use thr seams as a guide for decal placement.

[@RWHobbies]

good call. thanks

I’m surprised they didn’t fix the panels when they made a new mould

[@RWHobbies]

The marketing said improved surface detail. However looks the exact same to me. Still a great kit though.

The marking options are GREY, GREY, GREY and GREY lol. I would do the one that has the MARINES markings in RED to get a bit of colour on it.

[@RWHobbies]

Agreed. A little pop of color makes the difference. But with some corrosion weathering you can make them look visually interesting. Also may be a shooter figure in the yellow or deck staff around the jet in color shirts.
