Yep, and the price of re-issued kits is the same or very similar to that of the original kit, Hasegawa does not even come close 🥰

Absolutely stunning, congratulations! Arnaud

Just out of curiosity, may I ask why resin was chosen over thermoforming?

Thanks for sharing, great immersion feeling!

I regularly smooth it once dry with nail varnish remover (containing acetone) and a Q-tip. It takes a minute to become wet again and off you go, no need to risk the surrounding details with sanding paper 🙂 Arnaud

F-15Is retain the feathers, if you want extra detail you can use Aires exhausts combined with the GWH feathers it works well with a bit of external thinning of the Aires parts (invisible once the feathers are on top):

This all sounds like great news Raymond. I noticed Takom has not been available from LM for a few months: is this meant to be a permanent situation?

Are you sure? Source: US Air Force website That being said, 95% of the pictures show the pylon in place 🙂

I have not built the Academy kit but the GWH F15I is very close to their F-15E and it is a superb kit, excellent fit and detail. As a matter of fact after I completed the F-15I I ordered their F-15C and F-15E 🙂 Arnaud

Thanks Gianni, this means a lot to me my friend 🙂 Arnaud

There you go, finally! Due to size limitations I can only include one side, easy enough to mirror though 🙂 Please share your results 😉 Arnaud F-15I eagle.studio3

Thank you all for your kinds words! Actually I can attach files to posts, I'll do it as soon as I get back home so everyone can use it 😉 Arnaud

Thank you. No problem to share the Studio file, although I have no idea how to do it! Care to explain? Best Arnaud

Thank you all, calling this one done! SImple base made from plasticard and pine wood. Two completed builds in a year, hum... Happy New Year! Arnaud
