ChernayaAkula Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 That came out pretty darn cool! The feeling of speed and motion is definitely there! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ken Middleton Posted March 1, 2008 Author Share Posted March 1, 2008 That came out pretty darn cool! The feeling of speed and motion is definitely there! thanks Moritz....I may add a small dab of JP-8 under the base for more realism Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gambler Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 That turned out fantastic Ken!!! As the other guys said, you have captured that moment in time very well, especially the modification to the Landing Gear. Beautifully done. Cheers, Jeff. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Filak Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 Ken, Outstanding work on the model, particularly when you take into account the gear retraction sequence, and the inflight display is extremely well done. You've certainly mastered this type of display, with the unit patches and ID plaque completing the entire package. She's definitely a keeper, my friend! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guard Hog Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 That turned out great! The display is first class! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ken Middleton Posted March 1, 2008 Author Share Posted March 1, 2008 thanks Jeff, Steve and Tom. Finding that stair-step at Home Depot for the base was a real plus to the overall project Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GreyGhost Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Ken, as I said in your In-Progress thread ... Excellent Tribute to those that Defended us on that Fateful Day ... Love the whole package, including the minimal weathering, most of the ANG Eagles I've seen have been kept very clean ... Top Shelf ... Gregg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
