DJJunis Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Stunning! I little heavy on the weathering for my taste but it looks fantastic...the front views look very convincing. All the Best! Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger331 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Great work on a great model....Really captures the look of the very heavily utilised VMF-235 jets that flew from Da Nang. The middle photo is particularly effective. Given their heavy use in the CAS role for the USMC at the time, the only thing I would have considered adding would be some zuni rocket pods or a bomb load to really set it off. Nevertheless, a brilliant subject that has been executed very well indeed !. Bravo ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christer A Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 That's one fine Crusader! I really like it It looks a lite naked without any weapons though, but thats just me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michel30 Posted August 24, 2017 Author Share Posted August 24, 2017 Thank you Gentlemen Yes, I could fix the weapons ... They are made ... but I prefer to look only at the beautiful shapes of the airplane. Best Regards 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ade H Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Model making is part history and part art. You have captured both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aidy Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 The finish and weathering on your Crusader is simply fantastic! Lovely job, well done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael51 Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Brilliant build! The weathering is a superb piece of work in itself and is very realistic. Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hewy Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 A fine representation of a well used crusader, great job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark4700 Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Very nice. Weathering is quite heavy, but I like it that way. It looks like a Vietnam era plane, I suppose they didn't get washed as often due to the number on sorties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kampartiger Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 The smudges,rain marks and dirty panels are a reminder of how aircraft operating in the tropics can look like after spending time under the weather especially on the light gray Crusaders.Michel,yr Crusader is simply great and I hope you had a good time with it.
