Peter Marshall Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 I'm calling this one done, mainly due to being sick of having to patch the Alclad polished aluminium. Why that particular shade causes so many problems is a bit of a mystery. Apart from the Alclad this was a fun kit, only minor issue being the fillet to cover the space for the second seat which needed a little filling, and me putting the nose on upside down at first Build thread is available here Peter 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Kunac-Tabinor Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Nice one Peter. Unusual to see an F104 without any thing on the ends of the wing tips too. FWIW I think your Alcladding looks top notch. Jonners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Marshall Posted April 6, 2014 Author Share Posted April 6, 2014 Nice one Peter. Unusual to see an F104 without any thing on the ends of the wing tips too. FWIW I think your Alcladding looks top notch. Jonners Being honest I liked the look of it without the tip tanks - accentuates the 'manned missile' look. Same reason why I went for the scheme with white wings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BomberBrit Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 (edited) Very nice! I saw one of these not long ago at the Taiwan Air Museum, unfortunately looking a bit shabby. Was my first time seeing one in person, bigger than I expected it to be. Great build Looks very nice. Edited April 9, 2014 by BomberBrit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
