Ian says, “I built this Italeri 1/72 scale F-5B as a CF-5B flown out of Cold Lake. It was a test piece for my first attempt with Alclad II natural-metal paint. The base under the Alclad was Tamiya gloss black, with sea gray and light gray clear coated with DuPont clear and finally sanded with 2,500-grit wet/dry sandpaper to create panel variations.” Ian used a combination of Leading Edge, kit-supplied, and homemade decals. The high-vis color is Createx fluorescent hot red.
