EricF Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Hi to everyone, I am a newcomer on this forum Before talking about my recent built, I intrude myself a little bit. I have been a scale modeler for around 30 years. I already have published some treads on other forum some 10 years ago. After this long break, I start again to built and share with the modeler' community. Back on this built now. This is the Trumpeter kit with its errors that I did not correct for most of them. The aim was at completing a built without redesign the kit. It took me around 4 months to complete it. Used after market kits: - Icarodesign transkit for the cockpit, exhaust and other additional specificities for the type, and decals. - Profimodeler Pitot - Armory wheels - HAD fuel tanks - HAD Mach- cone - Aires ejection seat - Zactomodel pylons Paints: MRP with Microscale vanish Extrat work: - Nose fuselage extension - A lot of sanding to thinner the trailing edges and to make the scribing softer for the scale - Classic plumbing in the wheel wells Here are the pics of medium quality I am sorry but I am not well equipped to shoot pictures Hope you like it My next project on the bench is the F-8 E from the VMFA 235 Cheers Eric Whitey, KiwiZac, Dany Boy and 12 others 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
