Damn impressive all round! Lovely weathering effect you got there, really looks like its been ravaged with time.... BTW how did you get that spraypaint effect on the fuselage side over the decals?

I'm driving up with another modeller from the model club for Saturday only - oh with the debit card loaded naturally Hope it's enough time to meet everyone, see everything and buy some kits and goodies as well. Looking forward to it!! See ya folks there Kevin

Hey Zipper fans One of you must be able to answer my q?

Pat, that instrument panel is bloody marvelous!! One of the finest ive seen, if not the best. By the way how big is it across for reference? Also how the heck did you manage to create such fine detail? Using pens? <<< gobsmacked <_<

Thanks for the pics Jari. One more question, the instructions for the cockpit interior for my vintage Mono 104C show olive drab as the color This doesnt seem right as all the pics ive seen show the instrument panel and cockpit interior as a bluish-grey??? Can anyone confirm the interior color of the cockpit?

Hi there Im looking at detailing the cockpit of my F-104C. Any pics or links to walkaround pics to share? Thanks guys Kevin

Super build there mate! Subtle color and weathering makes all the difference. Never even heard of this a/c before i saw your build on ARC homepage. Now im really hooked on it, its a great looking jet!

Really nice build there, looks super, well done! :( after seeing this a/c im thinking of buying one myself and building it

Have a look on the ARC homepage for today, someone built a beautiful 1/48 Heller G.91R Gina. Admittedly there was a lot of scratchbuilding and filler, but it looks super! Just shows you what you CAN achieve with enough effort :(

Second box of kits from Craig arrived superfast from US, well-packed. Deal with confidence with this guy.A+++ Cheers Craig
