Joel_W Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 MInus, Most impressive build. Camo paint scheme really turned out quite well coupled with your weathering that certainly has that used but not abused look that I much prefer. Joel Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Joel_W Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Phantom, Both CF-104s are simply outstanding. Both have what looks like absolutely perfect gloss paint finishes. Joel Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sledge Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Back to some more Monogram! A-4E VA-46 Klansmen June 67' piloted by John McCain just before this jet was lost in the huge accidental firing of a Zuni Missile aboard the Forrestal. Another OOB build here as the newer Revell/ Monogram decals are pretty nice. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Joel_W Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Sledge, Very nicely done. An overall Black paint scheme is really a tough deal to pull off, but your build looks great wearing black due to some very effective weathering. .Always great to see another prop here, as ARC is really jet orientated. Nothing wrong with that as it's a younger crowd that grew up basically with military jets. Us old guys who were born just after WW11 grew up with the end of the prop age and the beginning of the jet era. Joel Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sledge, I'm still a prop man at heart, just my upbringing as a modeler from the yesteryears of a baby boomer (born 1947). I'm currently building the Academy 1/48 P-38L.

Joel_W Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Phantom, Your 1/48 Hasegawa CF-104D is certainly another beautifully built and finished jet for your ever growing collection. I still can't figure out how you build them so quickly. Joel Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Joel_W Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Modelguy2, Two very impressive WW1 builds. Is the rigging on both models via Photoshop? If so, the turn buckles are a very nice touch. Joel Quote Link to post Share on other sites
