Hockeyboy76 Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 I was planning on doing just the F15E with bombs but can't resist a bit of orange, so will be doing the Tiger meet too. I have the RetroWings goodies from Domi to enhance the cockpits & burners. Obligatory box shots ready to start. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hockeyboy76 Posted October 5, 2017 Author Share Posted October 5, 2017 Having dropped massively behind with this build, I will now aim to get just one finished. Must be the one with orange. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be the one with orange. Do the bombs one, we've already got two of the orange stripey ones! (Plus having given myself a breakdown just getting the bomb pylons on to the CFTs, I'd dearly love to see how you get any bombs on the little beggars).

azureglo Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 The Curse of the Matchbox GB Strikes a brave F-15 builder, fight on Brother H, finish that baby bird. I have put down my F-5B to finish my vague facsimile of an Eagle, it can be done. A 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockeyboy76 Posted October 21, 2017 Author Share Posted October 21, 2017 (edited) Going to call these a Fail. Time & House jobs have beaten me on this GB. I will not get either of them to a standard that I will be happy with. I will move into a WIP and complete the pair. Thanks for the encouragement & support along the way.
