Cheetah11 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 I have the Italeri F-104 and intend to do an Italian F-104S in the future. Looking at the decals it seems a waist to only use one option so the old Hasegawa kit was rescued from the shelf of doom. The following was done and added. Hasegawa kit re-scribed. Brass pitot turned on the Dremel. Seat from Italeri kit detailed. Scratch build IP Scratch build rear cockpit wall Kormoran missiles from CMK(Beautifully done, best resin weapon I have seen) with scratch build pylons. Bulged wheel doors from Italeri kit AIM-9B from Italeri kit with scratch build European Sidewinder launchers Chaff/flare dispenser scratch build. Aires afterburner nozzle. Pastel weathering and Revell paint. Enjoy Cheers Nick Fanes, Daniel Leduc, Michael931080 and 9 others 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ernest Hi Ernest Thanks for the comments. The base was made by cutting the grooves in superwood and painting the filling between the blocks. The base was finished by airbrushing various shades of grey onto it. Happy modeling Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
