1/72 Academy Canadair F-86F Sabre

I'm back! :)  Another Yugoslavian bird came out from my workshop. It's Canadair F86F Sabre in colors of acro group.  This plane with these markings was stationed in Batajnica from 1960.  What to tell about the kit... Great model, fine panel lines superb details for this scale... I've used MM enamel and acryl paints. The weathering on my  model is little heavy 'cause I want to represent this plane near the end of its acro days.

F-86 was replacement for old Jug and other prop fighters in our air force. First came the F version and after awhile the "dog" came too.

Today this plane stands in a open field and continues its rotting process.  Sad story for ex acrobatic machine.   :(

I hope that you like it

Cheers, pozdrav i cao,

Dalibor
