ghatherly Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Hi, What do you F-105 modelers need from the AM community that is not offered? Looking at exhausts and an F-105 F conversion for Hobby Boss kits to start with. Thx Gary GT Resin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
B.Sin Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Intake covers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChesshireCat Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 how about the parts to build an EF105f? Plus all the parts to do a good F105g. gary Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kurt H. Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Any parts for monogram? Maybe a 1 piece closed exhaust petals set. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A better-fitting radome, with a more scale pitot tube, will go a long way to fixing the odd look of the Monogram nose. Based on standing next to and under the real thing while holding a built Monogram kit, I personally don't think the nose itself is off as badly as some might suggest. A B conversion would be nice, too. Ben Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Craig Baldwin Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Speaking of the ghost of Monogram, hoping they will reissue the standard D model again. I don't mind the raised lines. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You can save doing the intake covers by doing the full length (seamless) intakes O.K. not an easy undertaking, but it's doable! XMM already realized a few more or less complex intakes - Draken, Etendard, Skyray.... Best regards, Jens Quote Link to post Share on other sites
viper50 Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 I second the idea of a B model conversion. Don M. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chris D Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 I agree with much of what has been suggested already. I would be heavily interested in conversions for the B and for the F. And some intakes for the Hobby Boss kit would be supremely welcome. Even if they are multiple pieces, it would be a vast improvement over the empty void. Chris Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PeepingBear Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Hobby Boss' F-105? Well what about the missing centerline pylon for the typical load of one MER with six M117 bombs? OK it is a relatively easy scratch build, but it WOULD fill a gap. Regards Ian Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dnl42 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Don't forget, Master has an amazing brass pitot! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
