Ken Middleton Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Just finished today, 1:48th Hasegawa F-15D with Caracal Models F-15 ANG Part 2. The sheet has markings for F-15C 85-0118, but I wanted to do a D model first. I made the crew names, and New England Patriots markings (on right, front fuselage) and printed on ink jet decal paper thanks for looking cheers Ken Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jester292 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Great build! Thanks for sharing, Ken. What did you use for the nozzle covers? Is that the Academy kit? Just awesome! Aaron Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sledge Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Wow! Your rolling eagles out faster than McDonald Douglas could make em! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ken Middleton Posted January 10, 2013 Author Share Posted January 10, 2013 thanks guys! Aaron, as stated, it is the Hasegawa kit. For the covers, I used diluted white glue brushed over tissue that was draped over the nozzle, and trimmed and painted once dry. cheers Ken Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Iron Man Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Wow, looks like its straight out of the paint shop. Good clean build. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
.linus Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 looks great ken! You're like an assembly line, man! I can't get one of my kits finished in two years and your cranking out like 10 a week, haha. Also, i thought i remember you saying you only use rattle-cans for painting, is that correct? if so you do a great job with the camo. Any time i try to use the cans, it looks like i've dipped the model in a bucket of paint. i always spray too thick. anyways, looking really good. *thumbs up* Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ken Middleton Posted January 10, 2013 Author Share Posted January 10, 2013 thanks guys! linus, for my Eagles, I use Tamiya sprays haze grey for the darker grey, and medium sea grey for the lighter. Tamiya sprays go on light and very nicely Quote Link to post Share on other sites
