Neat shot, Fitter. The Renegades always had some of the nicest schemes while in F-8's. I also like VF-191's markings, not the CAG markings but the regular scheme. Heck, if it's a MiG-Master, I like it!

Also, thanks for posting this pic, cuz it led me to the Gustav site (which I'd never seen before) and I found a neat walkaround for an ROKAF KF-5E. I love Tigers too...

Butz,

Next time you're over, I'll have to deny you access to the Stewart's Key Lime. It seems to have a strange effect on you...

Try wodka, tequila and red bull.. Two will knock you absolutely flat..

Nice looking aircraft. I always did like the sleek lines of the F8, and I was lucky enough to see one of the noisy buggers belonging to the French navy at an airshow a number of years back.. But (sorry) I'm not a big fan of the painting and weathering style I frequently see on Japanese built kits. Its almost like the panel lines are painted on, overly dark and no streaking of grime.. Granted, it looks very neat and tidy but doesn't really light my realism fires..

After looking at the a/c again, I would agree w/ you on the panel lines Michaelvk
Now that I think of it, all the built ups by Hasegawa tend to have thick panel lines. Maybe the builders have a heavy hand...LOLTongue [:P]
In all it does look neat and clean but I like them used[:0]

Take a stroll over to the Heli forum... check out the #72-79 links there... you'll see the 1:32 scale F-105
