Starfighter Posted yesterday at 10:37 AM Share Posted yesterday at 10:37 AM One of Trumpeter's best offerings. It just needs a bit of love and small corrections. Looking forward to seeing what you'll be doing with it! Oldbaldguy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrish Posted yesterday at 02:56 PM Author Share Posted yesterday at 02:56 PM The F-8 doesn’t seem to have a lot of love in the decals department these day. There’s a Russian decal maker, that’s not going to happen, victory models (quite colourful) but not in stock anywhere, a couple of options less interesting than what’s in the box available from Hannants (Zots etc.) so I may just go with what’s in the box. Should’ve shopped for decals a few years ago apparently. the fin flash decals in the kit for VF 194 400 look quite inspiring actually. A ways to go before I need to decide I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This Air &Space article sums it well. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/air-space-magazine/11_on2015-f8-crusader-at-60-180956611/ Essentially the intake was so low and so big you didn't want to be near the front of the plane, just like a Gator.
