Jax77 Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 (edited) I finished this a few month's ago and I didn't put it on here for inspection. So here it is now. 1/32 Tamiya F-15E converted to F-15I Ra'am using the Cutting Edge conversion, Isradecal F-15I decals, Isracast Python 4, Cutting Edge Lantirn Pod, Cutting Edge AIM-120 AMRAAM. The base is half inch plywood with clear acrylic rods going through the exhaust nozzles. I bent the rods into a curve after having them in the oven at 250 degrees for about ten minutes. Israeli flag patch and 69 squadron patch on the base. The base was painted with a tan textured spray paint to give it kind of desert look. Added an F-15 Drop Tank that a friend of mine made for me. It is solid resin cast with brass rod's inserted into drilled holes. holes drilled into the center line pylon. Super glued in. I was debating about putting 2 on it using the wing pylons, but it just seemed to much. It is way way better than the Tamiya Drop tanks. Here are some close up before mounting on the kit Edited August 26, 2014 by Jax77 andromeda673, SinuheH, brewer and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SciFi58 Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Awesome. I'm toying with the idea of making a glass top coffee table with a diorama inside - the Revell 1/32 F-15D converted to a Ra'am chasing a Syrian Revell MiG-21 with lights and firing a sidewinder and everything. It's a dream I have. Barry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
