I used Model Master Hull Red Schiffsbodenfarbe 2165 for my SRAM's a few years ago. Straight Hull red for the stripes and lightened hull red for the fins. Vallejo and Tamiya make a hull red also that should work.

I wish there was a "like" button for posts. Maybe we can get Steve to add it as a feature, after he fixes the spam filter.......

That’s a great idea Geoff! I’ve always wondered how many ARC guys I’ve simply passed by unknowingly at various shows. It’s always nice to be able to put a name to a face, after all there’s a ton of anonymous talent on this site. If I fly up I’ll be sure to wear a tag👍

There’s an in-depth build thread over in the in-progress section that may help with your questions. He covers the intake modifications needed pretty thoroughly.

FS 15042 Gloss Dark Sea Blue I remember a thread a few years ago discussing this. I'll see if I can find it. Edit: Found it What color are F9F panthers? - Jet Modeling - ARC Discussion Forums

That looks great! I always marvel at guys who can do photo etch successfully. That stuff it literally the bane of my existence.... Love the added riveting detail also!

Robert, PM sent

I have this kit in the stash, I'll take a look tonight when I get home. Mike

I like it! I'm with Loach, I think the weathering visually suits the model very well. Nice job!

That’s awesome! You pretty much nailed the look, bud. Back when I crewed, we had no concept of masking our sealant jobs, just an index finger and spit. Always turned out looking like butt😂

Awesome, great info, Dutch! Btw, I got your PM. I’ve definitely got my work cut out for me!

Perfect, Thanks Andy!

Does anyone know what version Texan this is? @Dutch I know you have an extensive library of New England aviation, and most probably have the answer but I feel you may be covered up in post hurricane restoration. I'm starting my nesting chores on a New Hampshire ANG aircraft lineage collection, but I want to make sure I’m getting them right. If anyone else can help with versions of other a/c flown by the 133rd out of NH, wether it’s Grenier or Pease that would be awesome! Thanks in advance Mike

Wow! When I started scrolling down the first picture began to come into view, I initially thought it was a reference picture of the actual jet taking off! Very convincing. Maybe I should take a 14 year break...... Well done👍
