Lee White 3,114 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 Leaning_Dog, Alain Gadbois, thierry laurent and 18 others 21 Link to post Share on other sites

quang 2,555 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 post Share on other sites

Lee White 3,114 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 Derek B, johncrow, MARU5137 and 10 others 13 Link to post Share on other sites
