I’m pretty happy with how this one turned out, but it was a fight every step of the way.
Thank you Jesper for another great campaign and hoping you do another one for 2025 as I already have my subject.
Happy Modeling and Happy New Year to everyone!

Aloha Tamas,
I wouldn’t worry about the official end date being extended. From past experience, Jesper has opportunity to accept later finishes, where officially changing the date is more complicated and involves some of the site managers. As Jesper already agreed to allow you to continue working I would encourage you to keep at it, as your effort won’t be wasted.
Happy Modeling and looking forward to seeing your completed Speeder.

Gentlemen,
I am officially done. The kit is ready as you can see in the photos here. It was a hard challenge but finally reached my goal: a worn, weathered, low-altitude support airplane of the future Hungarian Air Forces.
As I wrote in the very beginning, the Revell kit is no better than underperforming with many flaws My transformation into an imagined 1/35 scale model was also a huge job.
Although I see some issues, I am satisfied with the result.
Happy New Year and Lovely New Kits for 2025 for all!

Tamas, your speeder looks fantastic! Nice job on the weathering and the conversion to 1/35th is awesome. It seems to really work at that scale.
Happy New Year!

I really like this speeder. Great finish on the camo and fantastic work on the 35th scale changes. And the decals really make it. The Hungarian flag coloured triangles on the wings remind me of Alitalia sponsored rally cars!

Hi Iwatajim,
Thank you very much for your kind feedback. The triangles are the official HAF markings, can be seen on field vehicles, too. I have used a Hungarian Air Force annyversary Aero L-39 kit decal set from HAD Models to decorate the speeder.

Thank you very much 
Too much trouble here, so i make the mistake …
Here are the final pics of my “Pharao Echnaton"s Rocket Fighter” , build around 1340 b.C.
Scale is 1:72.
There is a radar pod on the front right and the incredible"sun ray gun" placed in the pod at the underside…

Looks awesome!
Congratulations to the Pharao’s Rocket Fighter, really nice job!
I hope Echnaton could fly to the Gods with it, well before self-made expediters stole everything found in his tomb.
