Rhinolover Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 My first finished GB entry. This is the HAS 1/48 kit and was built OOB adding a few areas of scratch building with some sheet styrene. Cross Delta decals were used to finish it off. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hoops Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 VFA-151 in 1/72 scale. Hasegawa kit with quite a bit of work to make it look just a little bit better. Decals are from Eagle Strike, and while they went down nicely, I cannot recommend the decal sheet. It has a number of accuracy problems, and there are some missing items... Enjoy!

Ken Middleton Posted April 27, 2011 Author Share Posted April 27, 2011 Great work Stanton! Please remember all, we'd love to have your work displayed on the completed builds web page http://s362974870.onlinehome.us/forums/air/index.php?showtopic=222433 I could grab the pics and text from this thread, but having the pics and info emailed would help greatly - thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EX_Birdgunner Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Another Grim Reaper completed for the build. I got the flat coat on and putting this 'cat up for display. It was a really fun build with not many problems. One note is that I used the wings from an earlier Has F-14A that did not have flaps and slats. I did this because I planned to keep this 'cat's wings swept and so I could use the newer tooled wings for the 'A' in a later build. I tried some new techniques like a sludge wash with acrylics, using red permanent marker for the gear doors and such, as well as putting more effort into the cockpit since this is my first plane with open canopy. Overall I have enjoyed the process and will carry on with one of my 1/48 Tomcats in the stash. Contemplating the Academy Bombcat. Enjoy the pics: More pics in the critique forum at: http://s362974870.onlinehome.us/forums/air/index.php?showtopic=230353&pid=2196422&st=0entry2196422 I look forward to the next one.

Litvyak Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Well, this in no way stacks up next to the gorgeous builds in this thread, but here is my finished QF-4N. Used one of the kits from the 2-pack Hasegawa 1/72 F-4B "CVW-15" Combo, and the AeroMaster decal set "Phancy Phantoms pt IX" which includes decals for a QF-4N number 0465. Other than the decals, this is straight OOB. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ecrawford2 Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Here is my Monogram C-47 (RD-4) in Navy Markings. The kit decals were old and gave me trouble so I had to use some from the spares box, and paint the red strip which didnt turn out like I wanted, and I had a little bit of an overspray with the red on one of the wings. I didnt quite trust my paining skills to add on the black stripe down the fuselage, so I left it off. But I am happy with the results. Enough talking. Heres the pics By the way if you get the chance. I HIGHLY recommend the Navy Museum at NAS Pensacola. Especialy the new exibit with Que Serra Serra hanging from the ceiling. Its awe inspiring. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phantom Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Marine RF-4B. 1/48 Hasegawa with Superscale decals. REALLY OLD Superscale decals. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ecrawford2 Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 Here are some pics of my 72 scale panther. It seems like each kit that I build SOME issue has to pop up. With this one... I didnt coat the canopy in future (I cant seem to find it here) and it frosted. Shoulda used white glue I added some nose weight, but it wasn't enough. Then to top it off the desk/carpet monster got ahold of one of the actuators on the landing gear. I need to improve my picture taking skills, but here it is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
