murad Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 Nice kit with recessed panel lines despite it's age. A/C is French AF from it's time at Djibouti. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
davetur Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 I'm really surprised no one has commented this yet! French (also Turkish and Danish) F-100s used to weather very heavily, your model captures the feeling very well, Murad. Well done. Davide PS I suppose it's the ESCI/Italeri kit reboxed by Tamiya, right? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
murad Posted December 30, 2016 Author Share Posted December 30, 2016 Dave thanks a bunch. Correct molds are esci model by ita box by tam. since i stay away from italeri kits i was skeptical at first but this one was a pleasing build so to speak. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ChippyWho Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 C'est formidable! Yes, the Italeri and ESCI Huns (they aren't quite the same...!) are still the solution in 1/72. Your weathering looks superb -do you have a shot of the underside, by any chance...? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ChippyWho thanks i havent build trumpeter's 1/72 ones but shapewise i too heard esci is the better one. Unfortunately these are all the shots i took and the model is no longer with me...
