LSP_Paul Posted September 16, 2014 Author Share Posted September 16, 2014 Really nice job! I always had a soft spot for the Hun, after the Phantom, Banshee, Sluff, 104...... That one will be one hell of a bird! Thanks for checking in on my build Andre! The Hun has always been one of my favorites, a definite work horse in Vietnam. It took huge brass ones to fly this thing in good clean weather, combat and flying it at night were acts of downright bravery in my book. Pics to follow.

LSP_Paul Posted September 16, 2014 Author Share Posted September 16, 2014 So between work assignments today I was able to shoot some Tamiya Fine Gray Primer on the majority of the air frame, and if you ask me, I think it bears a resemblance to the F-100. I am relieved. It took a bit of time to re-scibe, re- rivet, and gently fill and sand, but I am very pleased with it so far. If all goes well, I will be pre-shading and painting in the next couple of days. A few tiny areas to touch up first, but that's going to go quick compared to the other prep work I've been doing I hope. Thanks for looking in on my build!

Uncarina Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Paul, I love your build! The plane is great, with a shark-like shape a definite connection to the Korean War Sabre. I'm looking forward to seeing it with clothes on! Cheers, Tom LSP_Paul 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Paul Posted September 16, 2014 Author Share Posted September 16, 2014 Paul Sure looks like one gorgeous Hun to me. Keep 'em coming Peter Thanks Peter. This is definitely one of those projects that at some point I had to poop or get off the pot.. I could have found all kinds of nit picky reasons to not proceed with adding the wings and primer, but I just decided that action was what would get me back into the build. I hope I can really add the depth I want with the paint job and final detailing now. The combination of bare metal at the tail areas and camo over gray should be quite a lot of fun! Wish me luck!
