Mal_Belford Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Im not much of jets, but i do have one that i like and that is the Phantom.... So must say, this looks really great, and that cockpit and weathering is really nice, details pop out perfect in my eyballs, thats a cockpit when its done something to want to peek inside when look at the whole model.

F-104nut Posted November 23, 2013 Author Share Posted November 23, 2013 Well got the rest of the cockpit installed and formation lights glued on. Still a little more sanding clean up required and parts to be glued. Next fun is the fuel tanks and all the bombs Cheers Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F-104nut Posted November 25, 2013 Author Share Posted November 25, 2013 FOD covers are from quick boost. They required a little plastic to take up the gap when installed on . Final formation lights installed. Still need to figure out bomb load on center rack since no luck on finding SEA era CBU's. Getting close to being painted Cheers Brian Showtime 100 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chuck540z3 Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Hi Brian, Really nice work on everything. One thing though, since it's still not too late. All those raised panels should be sanded down and rescribed. They are often mistaken for BDR (Battle Damage Repair) panels, but they're really panels that are often removed and sometimes stand out a little proud with sealant.

F-104nut Posted January 7, 2014 Author Share Posted January 7, 2014 Finally got the rest of the Mk.82's complete. Window frames painted and windows dipped in future. Not to mask and slap the windows on and get this beast painted. Cheers Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
