Lee White Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 (edited) Hi, i want to join with a new project I made, a 1/32 F3H-2 Demon. I originally was going to do a Javelin, but not long after I stared that, I got confirmation that it was for single seaters, only, no family wagons. So, back into the shoebox went the Jav, and I cranked out the molds in about a week. It is a very basic shape, no really complex shapes, aside from the intakes, which will need careful assembly to avoid one being bigger than the other. Here is a US Navy photo of the demon for those unfamiliar with the plane- And here are the molds used- Edited December 20, 2020 by Lee White Daniel Leduc, Out2gtcha, Alain Gadbois and 17 others 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

themongoose Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Looks like some great mold work there. A rare bird. Will enjoy watching you assemble it and really fill it out. Rockie Yarwood 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quang Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 The Demon is a favourite of mine. Not especially beautiful but oozes of character. I will be watching this with much interest. Good luck with your build. Rockie Yarwood 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee White Posted December 22, 2020 Author Share Posted December 22, 2020 A little progress! Wooden keel set, with spar cutout and afterburner area removed to make room for an afterburner yet to be sourced. And, fuselage halves ready for gluing LSP_Kevin, Derek B, fastterry and 9 others 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
