_alfisti_ Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 (edited) Just finished a little side project, built nearly oob except a resin seat and brass pitot probe. The kit in 1:72scale came from Meng was a easy built. Only little fitting problems are between the upper wings and the fuselage. The model was painted with Tamiya xf-20, and a mix from x-6, x-7 and x-8 for the International Orange. US Airforce titles and serials were spray painted useing a self made mask. The arresting hook was rebuilt useing an injection needle. No Decals so far. Hope you like the Deuce.

Parabat Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 That's fantastic, modelling of the highest order. Love a good delta, and this is a fine effort. Very nicely done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold55 Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Beautiful job and I think the high visability red/orange is right on the money! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billn53 Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 Well,done! I recently built this same kit, and agree with you about how nice it is. I hear Meng’s F-106 is even better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed the f-106 looks very nice, after building the F-102 I think i had to get a F-106 too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry1954 Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Exceptional build. You seem to have the colours spot on and I especially like that International Orange mix. Home made stencils seemed to work superbly. Terry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the little extras like the ladder and the different diorama bases The first base is just a simple base for taking photos. The ladder is made of styrene stripes and not nearly perfect. 12 hours ago, Terry1954 said: Exceptional build.

Terry I´m glad you all like the orange, it´s hard to get the right mix, on every photo from the original jet it looks different. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
