GForceSS Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 (edited) This is my first build of a 1/48 Hasegawa Starfighter. Here are most the add on parts I am incorporating. Its going to be in a Norm 72 paint scheme but I have not yet figured out which squadron. The Aires Martin Baker GQ-7 seats are brilliant but the PE belts were very difficult to work with, without flicking the paint off while bending them around the seats' contours. I added a few belts Aires left off with Tamiya tape strips. The face curtain loops were from a Has. F-14, and then decal stripes were added. The paint is all Model Master enamels. The right seat is for the front as it has the added canopy cutters on top. Edited August 8, 2012 by GForceSS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GForceSS Posted October 5, 2012 Author Share Posted October 5, 2012 (edited) Progress is slow but here area couple shots of my TF under way. The underwing tanks are from Heritage. Not very accurate but they will look great when painted. Milt Edited October 5, 2012 by GForceSS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
