whiteladder Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 (edited) Just in the process of finishing a 1/32 F15 Aggressor. Have been running in oil paint wash into the panel line this afternoon . Have also been scratch building the tank, need to do a bit more filling. Edited June 9, 2015 by whiteladder
SilentGun Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 ooooooo! that is just beautiful! did you build this from the ground up?

whiteladder Posted June 8, 2015 Author Posted June 8, 2015 1 That's kind of you to say. It's a Revell kit that I had in my stash for years, unfortunately it's not a easy build or very accurate. None of the main parts fit correctly, so there is lots of filling and sanding to be done. Also the kit is supposed to be a F-15E, but when Revell released it back in the 1980's the E was only a prototype. The production E was significantly different, so I built it as a F-15D. It's still not completely right, it has the E cockpit.
whiteladder Posted July 18, 2015 Author Posted July 18, 2015 (edited) Finally got around to finishing this. Edited July 18, 2015 by whiteladder

whiteladder Posted July 19, 2015 Author Posted July 19, 2015 (edited) Very nice! How long did it take you from start to finish? Cheers, tricky to say how long its been a bit of a stop start project. Not helped by me starting the paint scheme and then finding out the company that make the decals I was going to use no longer exists. Edited July 19, 2015 by whiteladder

whiteladder Posted July 19, 2015 Author Posted July 19, 2015 Nice job. I should get back into modelling. You should definetely do it, I hadn`t built an aircraft for ages, mostly been painting figures. It was a lot of fun.

whiteladder Posted July 25, 2015 Author Posted July 25, 2015 Scoggs and Elchacal thank you thats very kind of you to say. I have 3 weeks off work due to a knèe operation, i'm considering what to do next. I have a 1/ 32 f-18c hornet that would look good all weathered up. I also have a couple of fw 190, a D9 and F8 version.
