modelling minion Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Hi all, Here are some (quite a few actually!) pictures of my latest build, it's Hasegawa's well know 1/48 F-104 Starfighter finished in the markings of 202 Hikotai when playing the role of an aggressor for one of their annual Air Combat Meets. These ACM's have produced some very nice and unusual colour schemes and it was difficult to decide which one to build, suffice to say that there will be a few more in the future. Anyway here are the pictures. Here is a link to the WIP and whilst you are there have a look at the other great builds going on in the GB. Thanks for looking in and all comments and criticisms are gratefully received. Craig. 23 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildeSau75 Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Nice one - like the JASDF scheme. Without some Sidewinders fitted at the wings, the wings look even smaller. Looks more like a rocket than a plane. Must have been a hell of a ride. Cheers, Michael 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modelling minion Posted January 30, 2018 Author Share Posted January 30, 2018 Thanks for the kind comments guys much appreciated. There are some cracking JASDF schemes for F-104's (and F-4's and F-15's) so this will not be my last JASDF aircraft in temporary camouflage.

RidgeRunner Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 I can forgive the 1/48 because it is a great build and an F-104!!! Good one! Martin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
