F-104G 1:72

Nice!  Must be tiny in 1:72!

Mike

Thanks Mike! Not really tiny, it's almost half the size of 1:32

Very cool! Interesting to see it is splinter camo. I am now busy with the Hasa 1/48 104c , it just has the nicest lines of a plane :-)

Wow, I'm blown away.  I just don't know how you guys work with 1:72 and get that kind of detail without going blind!  Great job and thanks for sharing, Raymond

Those -104's were as common as houseflys back in the day in the old "Air Combat" magazines when I was growing up. It's cool to see one built up.

Theuns - thanks for your kind comments. F-104s seem to be quite popular, many recent threads talked about them.

Raymond - my artist "Artama" is originally a ship builder, 1:700 scale. 1:72 parts are about 10 times bigger than 1:700 ones, so no sweat. No part is too tiny, no detail too small for him. You're welcome and thanks for your kind compliments.

mississippivol - I've read that they were hard to fly because of so small wings, and some were widow makers. Is that right?

That is a VERY nice looking 104! Excellent paint and decal application!

Great Job!!

Fantastic!! My all time fav airframe
