Revell F-15E based on the generation one colours. Just like old times.

Wings unlevel Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 There’s going to be more to this build than meets the eyes, it would seem… 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moviedrone Posted September 14, 2022 Author Share Posted September 14, 2022 Did the tub and the nose, am going for something fun and appropriating the cartoon style while not being super realistic. So I'm going to paint the seats and cockpit a subtle shade of orange-yellow and then do the canopy in the same colour but clear. The overall jet colour will be light ghost grey. This is much more about having fun and building for me. I haven't built something in a while so I just want to be cool about it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moviedrone Posted September 18, 2022 Author Share Posted September 18, 2022 Did the engines in chrome with the Molotov pen, so it would have a nice sharp contrast with the deep red of the intakes, which were sprayed with acrylic rosso red from the Motip brand. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moviedrone Posted September 27, 2022 Author Share Posted September 27, 2022 Not a huge update, have added the nose and the nozzle parts have been primed for painting. Have also started doing up all the loadout bits. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moviedrone Posted October 3, 2022 Author Share Posted October 3, 2022 Did the nozzles, not super happy with them if I'm honest as it was tricky to try and get them to get them all lined up in a perfect circle, but oh well. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moviedrone Posted October 27, 2022 Author Share Posted October 27, 2022 Have painted the intakes and wing stripes. A little bit of bleed here and there but nothing hugely worrying. Also hit the canopy with Tamiya orange clear. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moviedrone Posted November 10, 2022 Author Share Posted November 10, 2022 Weapons loadout has all gone on, ready for final matt coat. Had a bit of a run-in with using oils for weathering, which took some of the paint off the top of the fuselage, so had to make it into some authentic battle damage using Tamiya weathering powders. Very near the end. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
