Yeah I agree, looks great! 👍 -
Streakin' over Suffolk. Bentwaters F-84F
reini replied to danbuoy's topic in Republic F-84 Jet fighter series STGB
@danbuoy Looking good! 😊👍 And yes, masking tape belts are fast&easy way to add some interest in the cockpit. -
A happy ending despite bad kit decals! Maybe that was a good thing as the scheme is looking awesome. Nice build and gongrats on finishing the kit 😊
-
@Giorgio N That masking looks pretty clever. I use foam also, but it's the bit more rougher type you find in packing materials. You can usually tuck it in the wheel wells, cockpit etc. I didn't notice any of the fixes you've made from the photos - so really good job!

reini replied to RidgeRunner's topic in Republic F-84 Jet fighter series STGB
Thanks Martin for these fixes. If only I would remember them long enough to actually implement them in my build...😶 -
@Jb65rams It seems like you've done your prep work well - great looking metal finish
-
@Hook Sword kits certainly seem to have plenty of ejector pins. But I think I still like the huge towers better than the shallow recessed ones...
-
@Hook Oh yes, gotta have some options!

@srkirad Nice and tidy job 👍 -

Yeah I guess if the starting point was to build just a 'Thunderjet with swept wings' - and ending up with just 15% commonality between the aircraft, one could have re-designed the tailpipe too. But then again, I guess the whole project was way too late as it was without major rework of the tail section. -

@Enzo the Magnificent Thanks for the heads up! 👍 And just gotta admire the amount and pace of your builds (and quality!) - It seems you and @Hook are responsible for half of the aircrafts built in this GB -

@Enzo the Magnificent I like Sword kits too. It's hard not to, with the subject choices they make. But also that I enjoy working on them - you know it's gonna take little bit extra effort maybe but they have the details to look good in the end. Quite rewarding kits in that sense. -
Sword RF-84F, 1/72, Operation Mousquetaire 1956
reini replied to Cummulus's topic in Republic F-84 Jet fighter series STGB
@Cummulus Oh that needed some serious thinning! But the end result looks really good, well worth the effort. -
@Hook Yes, definitely - even if the Sword kit might not be as refined as the SH kit - are kits are for building!

Academy 1/72nd F-84E KLu recce
reini replied to Hook's topic in Republic F-84 Jet fighter series STGB
@Hook Starting to look like an aircraft I like the Ammo panel line washes too. The effect is not too strong - but more of a subtle and smooth. -
@Hook Nice, nice Yeah definitely don't want to forget the nose weight. Looks like the fuselage will glue together well?
-
@Dennis_C Looks good to me 👍Colours have really brought all the details alive. That instrument panel is stunning!

Still plenty of time - welcome aboard! Looking forwards to your build, experimenting on different metal tones sounds good.
