Hasegawa 1/48 F16C

This is my second attempt at building a plan and the victim this time around is a Hasegawa 1/48 scale F16C Fighting Falcon ‘Alabama Ang Special’. I bought this kit from a huge model shop call Universal Models Limited (UML) in Hong Kong during one of my business trip there back in June 2008.

This took me couple of months to build due to my hectic workload but was able to finish it sometime in October 2008. Instead of having it in the normal landing pose, I wanted to build this in a more action oriented pose aka flying pose. As such, I did not bother about the landing gears and covered all the landing hatches.

I also drilled a small hole under the main fuselage so that I can poke a small iron rod into it and pose the F16 in flying mode. But also due to this, there is no more space to attach the spare fuel tank under the fuselage. As such, that spare tank was omitted.

Here are the pictures of the Hasegawa 1/48 F16C Fighting Falcon. All pictures were taken with my Canon EOS 400D with Sigma 18-200mm OS lens.

SMM07 Part 1

SMM07 stands for Scale Model Malaysia 2007. SMM07 is an annual scale model competition organized by the Selangor and Federal Territory Plastic Modelling Society (SFTPMS).

The competition was held on 15 and 16 December 2007 at Cineleisure Damansara.

There were so many entries in this competition I had to split the picture of the entries into two posts.

There are 64 pictures in this post. All pictures where taken with Canon 400D with Sigma 18-200 DC OS lens.

1/72 Air Show – 2007

This was the second year running of the 1/72 Air Show held at Hobby HQ on 10 and 11 November 2007.

The 1/72 Air Show is basically a showcase of 1/72 scale model aircrafts and any type and genre. To make things more interesting, a mock airport was built to house all the aircrafts. The aircrafts on show were contributed by local modelers who are passionate about their hobby.

Beside serving as an avenue for modelers to showcase their precious models, the air show also aims to generate more interest in plastic modeling among the general public.

These photos show some of the model aircraft that took part in the air show. I personally enjoyed the air show plus the free food and I am hoping for a bigger and better one next year and hopefully I will be able to contribute some exhibits.

All photos were taken with my Canon 400D + 18-55mm kit lens.

Trip to Kota Kinabalu, Sabah

I took a few days off work in April and went on a holiday to Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. It was just a short 3-days getaway. I must say Kota Kinabalu isn’t much of a city compared to the bursting scene of Kuala Lumpur but I guess that is what good about it. Its wide-open landscape and waterfronts are such contrast to the concrete jungle of Kuala Lumpur that it was quite a refreshing experience being there.

These are some of the photographs I took during the trip.

Day 1.
About to take off from the Low Cost Carrier Terminal (LCCT).
