Revell 1/72 McDonnell F-101B Voodoo


Recommended Posts

Morning all,

 

Another day, another completion. The next instalment in my Century Series theme, this is Revell's F-101B Voodoo. A decent kit with largely excellent fit, although I needed to do a bit of sanding and trimming to get the cockpit and nosegear bay to fit nicely. Otherwise, it was largely problem free. Finished completely OOB using Hataka Orange Line and Alclad lacquers.

Excellent work! I loved the Voodoo's shape when I was a kid - always wanted one, but it never happened... You made it look very attractive.

@Seamus really very nice. Put me off doing mine cos I won’t get it as good. What did you use to bring out the panel ones?

I used Mig Productions Neutral Wash

Very nice Shaun. That's a lovely finish you've achieved. Isn't this the ex Monogram mould?

I believe it's Revell's own tooling due to the recessed panel lines

Ooh - nuclear nukes!!! Nice :) Interesting if Oregon ANG had nukes in their arsenal.

And a very good result overall. Grisp and clean. Looks very good. My congratulations! Did you manage to do a rotating weapon tray to hide those Genies?

No, I made life easy for myself and glued the tray in position. If I'm honest I've no idea if Oregon ANG did use the Genies or not, but I opted for them as something a little different :)

Fully agree. Genies look cool indeed. On this monsterfighter any other missiles look as if they are in 1/144.

I actially tried rotation option but it really does not work perfectly well. So my Canadian Voodoo shows dwarfy Falcons while no one would see something that Canada was not supposed to have :)
