Revell F-84F Thunderstreak

Not normally a plane guy . Have not built one in a pretty long time ( not counting the 1/72 Gee Bee I built a couple months ago ). I got a renewed interest in planes since I visited an air and space museum around Christmas . This one I bought to try out some finishes before I tackle the 1:32 Tamiya P 51 Mustang . I know I may not do the best job with this but will give it a try . Lots of decals to do the Thunderbird version but it is a very sharp plane so..here we go !

Never was much into planes but after a visit to an air and space museum I got interested and bought a couple . This one is close to being finished . Decals have been a pain and they do not like Solveset . The two hardest will be the ones on the nose . Just doing the best I can . It was primed with Duplicolor and painted with Tamiya Gloss Aluminum .  Tamiya clear before decals . Put some pellets in the nose so it would not be tail heavy .

Hi, what did you use to mask the cockpit? How did you do it? I have a F-84C.

[cobraman]

Actually Mark I did not mask. I did it with a Chrome pen.  It's really only so so.

Now THIS.......is frickin' cool!!! As a kid I always liked the lines of this aircraft. Good work so far on this one Ray.
