br60066 Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Hi All, Just finished one of . This kit was like their F/A-18 where its partly quick build so went together nicely. The only problem with this kit was the well documented poor exhaust nozzles so I substituted in some resin cans from Aires that were far better. The model was painted then gloss varnished. After this a light wash was applied using Revell weathering powders since most pictures showed F-15E's pretty clean. I also pre-shaded but didn’t realise it would be overpowered as quickly with dark grey so next time will apply one less coat of grey or use post shading on dark colours. Again, any feedback would be appreciated . Thanks BR60066 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billn53 Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Nice looking Eagle. I have this kit in my stash, thanks for the heads up on the exhaust nozzles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks . I don’t think the stock nozzles would be as noticeably subpar if the rest of the kit wasn’t so detailed. Thanks BR60066 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
