1/48 Revell F-15E Strike Eagle


Recommended Posts

I finished this quite a few months ago. But I was faffing around with backgrounds trying to get some decent photos. Finally got something  I liked.

 

All the details of the build and my thoughts on the kit are at my blog

 

But in summary.  Good kit but showing it's age. I'm happy with most of it bar the exhausts (For such a prominent feature I didn't do a good job on them) and the canopy (crap design). 

Lots of photos at the blog but here's a couple of photos

Excellent job, wow !! Nice touch adding all the RBF streamers in their proper locations as well. I especially like that you added the target detector covers over the influence fuse windows. LOVE the Mudhen !!

Nice build!  Only question I have is where did you find the covers for the air sensors on the fuselage and the burner cans?

 

Never seen the red covers for the fuselage sensors before.

 

Thanks!

They were a set from Two Mikes Resin. I think they aren't available any more

For those asking about the probe covers, these are the ones I used.

Forgive the crappy pic, but you get the idea. They work great.

 

And sir, fantastic job with yours! Looks great! And what makes you unhappy with your work on the exhausts?

Just the overall finish, It didn't help I broke them installing them so had to do some repairs.
