KRI76 Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 Here are some pictures just taken of my Eagle. I had some deep trouble with the decals, but I managed to (almost) solve them. Thanks Volzi, Efrain and Murph for helping me out! Well, here they come! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wing_Nut Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 Fantastic Eagle!! I had to check a couple times to be sure you said 1:72 scale. I can't wait to see it completed Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EF Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 The model is looking really nice!!! What scheme and paints are those? Ghost Grays or Mod Eagle? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
eng Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 Had to re-check that you'd said 1/72!! WOW - the burner cans and the steel structure at the back end look awesome - how did you do these so smooth and flaw free? Eng :o Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KRI76 Posted January 7, 2005 Author Share Posted January 7, 2005 Thanks for your compliments! Efrain: if I´m not wrong, this is mod eagle. Eng: the metal parts have been airbrushed with different shades of Model Maters metalizers (Steel, Titan and Exhaust if I´m not remembering wrong). Some dry drushing with light greys and sliver on the outside and dark greys and browns on the inside completed the paint job. Glad to hear you like it. Soon I´ll post pictures of the finished a/c. Tomorrow maybe? /Kristian Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Murph Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 Kristian, Looks great so far. For a complete weapons load it would carry another pair of AIM-120's on the rear fuselage stations. Regards, Murph Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ken Middleton Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 Kristian, outstanding work on those nozzles! Can't wait to see the finished jet. Cheers Ken Quote Link to post Share on other sites
volzj Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 Kristian, Glad the decal situation worked out. :lol: Paint job looks terrific, what do you use to mask? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pete "Pig" Fleischmann Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 This looks fantastic! Excellent job :lol: Regards, Pig Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KRI76 Posted January 7, 2005 Author Share Posted January 7, 2005 Volzi: I masked it with common masking tape. Not Tamiya or "model stuff", I mean the cheap "paper" tape for painters (I think...). I hope you know what I mean. For the NM parts though, I used Tamiya for the contours and then I filled up with the same as above. And now, let me get back to work: I gotta finish it tonight!
