Rob K. Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Hi, Finally came round to posting 1/48 Tanmodel RF-84 Thunderflash in the RFI section. A nice kit but not without challenges. Please see also the WIP thread of this model. Airbrushed with AK Xtreme metal polished Aluminium and a flory dark brown dirt wash. Red and black Mr Color paints and some brushed highlights with revell aqua color. Decals by DutchDecal which adhered quite nicely. Despite the kit at times being little fiddly............ I can't wait for Tanmodel's 1/48 buccaneer when hopefully at some point (if ever) it will be on the web-shelves. Hope you like it. Did notice a few glitches myself, so critique is welcome too. Would quite like to do a Belgian or a RNLAF camouflaged version another time. That's all, thanks for watching. 54 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Fox Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Lovely work, as you say a great kit but it has challenges, Still I wish I could find another at a reasonable price. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Brantley Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 She's a beauty mate! So well done, and with some great pics as well. I bet you could pose that model at a real-life airport and it would look like an actual aircraft too! That's something of which to be proud! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
