Dukie99 Posted February 1, 2019 Author Share Posted February 1, 2019 Time for an update. I have not been very diligent in documenting this build but I have been working on it. I am actually on the homestrech and I have spent almost all my modeling time in the past seven days (which is not much) applying the myriad stencils provided in the Isradecal decal set. I have not counted them but you are talking several hundreds. Very good quality decals and clear instructions so no complaint but you get cross-eyed after a while. Here some pics and I have not finished, I need another two evenings at least. It is big and colorful and I like it a lot.

Dukie99 Posted February 11, 2019 Author Share Posted February 11, 2019 Time for an update and thanks Brian for commenting. With so many exciting build in the multi-engine GB, not much traffic on this one but I will finish my F-15i Ra'am. Not too hard to motivate myself because I find this scheme one of the most attractive for the F-15. I finished decaling, glued the targeting pods, fuel tank and landing gears and applied Tamiya Black panel liner to the center lower fuselage (but not the wings where it would look too heavy). Next steps, finishing the loadout, ejection seats and lots of bits and bobs. I should make it before the end of February deadline. A few pics Cheers, David Out2gtcha, Trak-Tor, BradG and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Out2gtcha Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Wow, you're really close! I think it looks great David. Looking forward to seeing the bits and bobs on, with the masking off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dukie99 Posted February 24, 2019 Author Share Posted February 24, 2019 (edited) And it is done. Very happy with it, happy to have finished it in time. It is by no means perfect but it was a very enjoyable build and I can see myself building another one or a F-15C in the future. All paints are MRP, smart bombs are from Eduard, Python 4 are from Isradecals and the Amraam are from Tamya F-16. The pit is OOB with the bits and pieces from the Isracast conversion, the seats are Quickboost. With this one done, I can reattach the Me-410 for the multiengine GB. Final pictures: Thanks to all who have followed the build and encouraged me, it is always appreciated.

themongoose Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Wow does that look stunning! Noticed the difference in how you painted the inside of the exhaust nozzles, nice touch. I’ve got to agree with you, it’s a good looking scheme. Dukie99 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
