This past Wednesday I just got Fine Molds' brand new F-15J delivered to my door. Immediately I started fiddling with it and started construction. So far I can definitely say this is not only the best F-15 in 1/72, but the best F-15 in ANY scale period. This is Fine Molds at their peak and their best kit yet. I really wanted a nice kit but I was let down by the GWH kit and the smooshed wide canopy and fat trailing edges. A problem scaled down from their 1/48 kit. The Platz kit was a step up, but the Matchbox-esque panel lines spoiled the whole package IMO. T

I started this build many years ago when I got a cheap partially assembled ACE (Revell) 1/144 767-300 kit with Liveries Unlimited partial EVA decals. I cut it down to a 200, sourced a radar dome from a Revell E-3A AWACS kit , sprayed some medium gray paint on some parts and promptly put it back in the box in preparation for one of my many moves about 20 years ago. I have decided to not buy any new kits this year (fingers crossed) and complete some or most of my hangar queens. The fact that CTA (Russia) released a resin conversion kit with decals prompted me to decide that this will be proje

Hello Friends, Just finished the F-15DJ of the JASDF in the Aggressor Color Scheme of Sand, Brown and Black. Academy F-15E Strike Eagle kit has been used as a donor kit and built into this F-15DJ.

Specially the decals and the stencils. Due to the pandemic I haven't been able to get my hands on the Relevant F-15DJ Decals and Stencils. Thus for th

Hello everyone, I recently bought Tamiya's 1/32 F-15J, planning on doing an Agressor bird. Although they mostly use the F-15DJ, they also have or had some F-15J's. However, I overlooked the fact that all squadron markings for the tails are included, the Tactical Fighter Training Group cobra-emblem excepted! I need 4 of those emblems, as they were painted on the in- and outside of the fins. Does anyone know if and where decals of these emblems can be obtained? Thanks very much for your input! Erik.
