Mach Turtle Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Happy new year, everyone! My Wingnut Wings FE.2b (early) has been stalled for some time, so I took the opportunity to build the Hasegawa F-104G/S Starfighter in 1/32 with my son. It has very little rigging and was a great way to get back into action. We used Leading Edge decal to represent the out-of-box F-104G as a CF-104. I know this isn't really accurate at all: We should have deleted the gun on the port side, and the wings are the wrong color. This was a holiday build, though, and we didn't want to deduct from our swimming and biking time by worrying too much about that. On with the show: (Is Cold Lake not the most Canadian place name, ever?) So there you go. No fancy heat discoloration in the aft part of the fuselage, nothing like that. But we're happy with it and hope you like it too. Cheers. 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knight_Flyer Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Appears to be a fun build for the two of you and the scheme looks very neat. I assume the minimal rigging refers to the wires holding the model Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
