pookie Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Absolutely flawless work. I also would like to see in progress pictures or share with us your painting/weathering technique. I like the weathering a lot, it's what makes this model pop! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mueste Posted January 19, 2010 Author Share Posted January 19, 2010 Hello guys First i have to say thank you very much to all for your comments! I'm pleasently surprised! About the questions to more pics..Yes. I've been waiting for better weather to take outdoor pics from the model because there's only snow at present. And a Italian TF-104 with snow in the background is a little bit unreal and not my taste too. Sad to say sorry, no in progress pics. I didn't think anything of it. Okay, now we've seen a couple of images of the original, but when are you going to show pics of your build? Amazing! Come on! You know it! :P Absolutely flawless work. I also would like to see in progress pictures or share with us your painting/weathering technique. I like the weathering a lot, it's what makes this model pop! That's just standard techniques like pre-/postshading, washing and so forth. No specials. Not forgetting..practice, practice, practice. Greetings, Stephan Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Spad Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 With this model you had made happy another Italian!!!!! :) Can I ask what color you used for the gray? It is a color very similar to the real color; I'm going to start to paint my F-104 and your model is an excellent guide. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mueste Posted January 21, 2010 Author Share Posted January 21, 2010 Thanks guys! With this model you had made happy another Italian!!!!! Can I ask what color you used for the gray? It is a color very similar to the real color; I'm going to start to paint my F-104 and your model is an excellent guide. I used for the gray Humbrol 126 brightend with white between 10-15 percent. Good luck for your paintjob! :lol: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mueste Posted April 8, 2010 Author Share Posted April 8, 2010 Hello guys, thank you all for your comments! How did the C&H parts fit the hasegawa parts? Looks really fantastic!Ørjan. The cockpit tube fits good with the Hasegawa fuselage and the radome. No major problems. The biggest problem is inside the tube. You have to remove a lot of resin to create space for the cockpit. And this is no fun! Beautiful images Stephan :D It was worth the wait to see these outdoor photos. Your F-104 looks so good under natural sunlight. BRAVO!! Great job. Thanks for sharing these latest pics BTW, Have you considered posting your MIG-29 In Progress here on ARC? :D Thank you! It's been a pleasure! About the MiG-29. Yes, of course. I considered about that. But i'm sorry, time is not on my side for two reports simultaneously and it should be added that my english is not very well. BTW: Where is your F-15E? I'm still waiting! post them in THE DISPLAY CABINET I say!!! <_<Stunning bit of photography... The Display Cabinet? Do you mean the Gallery on ARC? Thanks again to all Greetings, Stephan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
peacock8 Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Thanks for your answer. Now i have another question for you. Did you cut the canopy apart and the glue it piece by piece to the fuselage. Or did you glue it on in one big piece? Ørjan. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
