Planebuilder62 Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Hi there I got a bit carried away and started this before I took some pictures. The Fantasy Printshop decals will be used to make this Starfighter a bit different. Regards Toby 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modelling minion Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Great to see a Zipper joining the GB Toby, and nice to see it in the SEA scheme too. The Wolfpak decals look very nice, and it looks like it has some other interesting subjects on it too. Looking forward to seeing this one go together.

trickyrich Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 welcome along with a fine choice!!! I''ve sort of lost track (common issue) but this might be the 1st F-104 in the build??? Can't help but like to see these in SEA an SEA scheme. Good luck with the build, should be a great one to follow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Planebuilder62 Posted October 11, 2020 Author Share Posted October 11, 2020 Hi there Work is progressing on this build. Its not the best fitting Starfighter I have seen, here are the results of the first round with filler. Looking at references, these camouflaged F-104’s had RWR receivers under the nose and tail, here are my scratch built efforts. After looking more at references I found the ones under the tail were too small and too far fowards. Round 2 of the filler awaits and the new tail RWR’s. Here are some pictures. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modelling minion Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Well it might not be the best fitting kit but you are doing a great job on her, she already has that classic Starfighter shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickyrich Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 it's so nice to see a Starfighter in the build and underway even if it's not one of the better models to build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Planebuilder62 Posted December 27, 2020 Author Share Posted December 27, 2020 I managed to get this finished the other day. Here is the first camouflage colour going on, Xtracolour used for all the following colours. Here is the completed build. I am very happy with the Fantasy Printshop decals and the ‘over the shoulder’ refueling probe. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modelling minion Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Great that you managed to sneak this one over the line just in time. The Starfighter is a favourite of many on here and yours looks really good. Its always nice to see one in camouflage too. Very well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickyrich Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Wow you did manage to sneak this one in just in time.....in classic Enzo style! It's fantastic to see her finished, and the scheme with the nose art is great, well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
