GVoakes Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 and DONE! :) Taproom 103 - VF-143 Mig Killer - October 26, 1967 More to follow, but I believe this gets me in prior to the deadline (barely!) No particular reason - just wanted to use the Moai smilie! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Platypus Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Nice bird. Amusing is the VF-143 shield. I never noticed the french motto which seems to have a spelling mistake. Should read "REPROCHE" without a A. It appears in every VF-143 related site I visited. I wonder if it's not the old french spelling, but so far no luck in my research.

GVoakes Posted October 31, 2006 Author Share Posted October 31, 2006 is it Hase kit?? Yes, one of the original issue F-4B kits (at least I think it was an original issue!) Fox One Decals, Cutting Edge MB Mk Vs, Hasegawa weapon set Sidewinders and the whole mess painted with Gunze or Model Master acrylics. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
