Hi all,
It has been quite a few years since I've done any serious modelling and this is my first WIP on this forum, I chose Eduard 1/48 Special Edition F-8E Crusader as I always liked the sleek lines of "The Last Gunfighter" and this boxing of Hasegawa's F-8 with the bonus of canopy masks, resin wheels and ejection seat plus a colourful decal sheet designed by Furball was very tempting.
This picture shows some of the box contents, details can be found in Eduard's website; I've also have an original Hasegawa F-8E boxing and the moulding seems to have stood quite well the passage of time, there is a very slight difference in the definition of panel lines but it is barely visible.
In addition to the Special Edition "goodies" I bought a ton of aftermarket, this I will use or not according with progress in construction.
I'm also trying to post photos using Gyazo, bye for now,
Rui
