Danish F-84G

Royal Danish Air Force F-84G Thunderjet

Esk 725, 1950s

 

Heller kit / Lima November decals

Worked away at the old Heller kit for this one. Wing top surfaces were re-scribed but I left all those fuselage panels as raised details. In hindsight I should have put in the effort and scribed them as I did in my previous F-84G build (USAF version - see photos). My inspiration was the release of those excellent Lima November decals. I was always going to do one of the camo options but I struggled to find out whether the undersides were in PRU Blue or Medium Sea Grey. There is a colour illustration in the decal instructions but it looks about mid way between the two so isn't much help. In the end I found a couple of discussion items on this forum and went for the PRU Blue option.

Unusual painting scheme, I like it. Great job!

Nice brace of Thunderjets! Really like the camo bird (I built a Danish F-84G from the HobbyBoss kit) although I chose the MSG path for the undersides. The colourful USAF one looks great as well!
