Darren Roberts Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Here's another Monogram tribute build. This is the 1/48 F-105G. I put it in the wrap-around scheme for Georgia ANG. In doing research, I found a lot of oddities, if you will. I couldn't pick which ones to do, so incorporated the ones I liked into this paint scheme. My particular favorite is the upside down ejection seat triangles. Can you spot the rest? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Slartibartfast Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Left wing tip, right aileron are replacements from other aircraft. What's that blue doohickey on the taxi light? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Darren Roberts Posted July 23, 2018 Author Share Posted July 23, 2018 I'm not familiar enough with the F-105 to know for sure. I just know every F-105 has one, and they vary in color. I've seen red, blue, and yellow. I bet someone else knows, though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Geoff M Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 (edited) The doohickey is a radar reflector for the the approach instruments. They were usually painted the squadron color. Geoff M Edited July 24, 2018 by Geoff M Quote Link to post Share on other sites
