Republic F-84G Thunderjet in JRV part II


Recommended Posts

Second from my pair of Thunderjets (first could be seen at http://s362974870.onlinehome.us/forums/air/index.php?showtopic=245919) wasn't lucky...

While taking pictures of the finished model, the mirror I'm using for light dispersion accidentaly focused onto the right wing, and partially melted it and a landing gear below it in a matter of seconds... :crying2::bandhead2:

It was paintbrushed using different shades of Model Master metalizers, decals are again mix of "Lift Here" and "Balkan Models".

Seat belts are made of Tamiya tape and navigation lights of epoxy...

Accident to the side, I'm very happy with the result (and try to imagine that mentioned didn't happen <_< )

When I gather some patience and strength to look at it, maybe I'll modify it as it was struck by a bird, since the indent in the wing corresponds to the level of the damage...

Comments are, as always, welcome :thumbsup:
