George72 Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 (edited) Hello! I’ve always liked Aggressor’s scheme for the Eagles, so as soon I got a F-15C kit, I went after the right decal set for this scale. They’re from Two Bobs and everything else is OOB. I scratch built the ACMI pod from a AIM-9, so this bird is in the normal configuration for ACM training, with the pod and a captive AIM-9. Kit was ok, except for the rear compartment lid that had to be well sanded so the canopy could fit closed, even tough is not perfect. Hope you enjoy! Cheers Edited May 18, 2020 by George72 33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oberleutnant Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Excellent work! I'm building Tamiya's F15C and I'll be very happy if it turns out half like this. Not enjoying the kit too much to be honest. I'm also doing an unusual camo scheme - Ferris scheme. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booty003 Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 Superb mate, you have done a cracking job on that. Always good to see different schemes on these rather than just grey all of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mackem01 Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 That's a fantastic scheme - the bird's not too shabby either. Great job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was really a lot of masking with tamiya tape, specially around curved parts. 2 hours ago, Gary Brantley said: That is a beautiful Eagle George! I love that scheme and you've done it real justice.
