TheRealMrEd Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Well, as promised over in the W.I.P. group thread :BUILD THREAD Here are the finished pictures of my 1/72 scale Muroc Models F-8C conversion of the Academy F-8E kit, with raised wing and dropped flaps and slats: Had a few little glitches here and there, but I'm glad to have it in the collection! Thanks for looking in... Ed 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andwil Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 The Crusader is one of my all time favourite jets and this fabulous model really shows it off to good advantage. AW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdauben Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Beautiful work on that F-8C! The Irishman in me particularly likes the paint job you chose! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealMrEd Posted September 20, 2019 Author Share Posted September 20, 2019 Thanks for all the kind replies, folks! The build had a few challenges, but I like the colorful scheme myself, probably because of the Flynn on me mither's side... Ed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehnz Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 I really like what you've done with this Ed, as I think I mentioned in your WIP, I've this conversion in stock to do a machine from VF-84 with the flaming nose art carried over from the previous operators.
