Par429 Posted October 22, 2011 Author Share Posted October 22, 2011 Hey- Thanks for the comments, much appreciated! Some more progress. I finished a few more details. And added the wing stores. One of VC-8's missions was launching aerial targets. So I scratchbuilt a pair of Northrop BQM-74E targets to hang on the wings. (I have a build thread in the UAV Group Build if anyone is interested). The targets (and the launch adapters): They are mounted on the outboard wing stations on modified pylons: A few more things to do and I'll be done. Thanks for looking.

Par429 Posted October 25, 2011 Author Share Posted October 25, 2011 Hey- I finished a few more details, so at this point I'm calling it done. I was going to weather it some more, but I really like the combination of colors and I think toning them down would detract from it rather than add anything. A few more pics: Thanks to eveyone who commented or even just looked in. And thanks to the mods, this has been on my want to do list for quite a while, and I'm pretty happy with the result.
