-tcepilot
just make a gif here
As requested by tcepilot on another thread, here is the Trumpeter 1/35 SA-2 on Launcher that I built a few years back (2008-2010?) The Dragon VC figures a re to give a bit of scale perspective on how big this sucker is.
F is for FIRE, That burns down the whole town!
U is for URANIUM... BOMBS!
N is for NO SURVIVORS...

Wow creat pics/ job, I have seen the SCUD at the museum in Dayton Ohio before, I need to get over there... I'm thinking about building Revells A-6 Intruder in 1/48
That A-6 is a very nice kit! With a lots of ordinance! Go for it!
I have the DML 1/35 Scud in Iraqi markings displayed next to my SA-2 on the shelf. Talk about two big builds.
I thnik I'll pick her up tommorow!
Here is the camo. gray on the Phantom
Looks good there pilot
As a side note of the SA-2/Scud, here is what they look like on my display shelf...
wow looks great stik!
Ok so here she is so far.. just one more green to go!
Thank you! but I have the Paasche model H
Very rapid progress there pilot
Thanks stik! I have a request... will/can you build a THUD for our GB?
Oh the Thud is my favorite Vietnam Air Warrior.... Ever since I read "Thud Ridge" when I was a kid in school. I have a soft spot for guys facing long odds: TBDs at Midway, the 82nd at Nijmegen, etc. I have a couple in my stash. Depending on how long it takes for the F-104. I really want to get that one built as I started the cockpit last year, and then stalled out when I moved in June. I really want to get it finished first. But the Thud is favorite of mine so I will seriously give it a chance.
First a little housekeeping:
tcepilot please modify the roster for my build from "TF-100" to "F-100F"
Here's the sprue shots.
The F sprues:
And the rest:

I would love to be in on this build. Trying to decide between a Marine F-8 or VA-195 A-7. The F-8 is an older release of the monograms F-8 and I have 2 A-7 an old monogram or a very old ESCI kit. Any suggestions?
On the Bench: 1/72 Ki-67, 1/48 T-38
1/144 AC-130, 1/72 AV-8A Harrier
Build all of them! It's fine if you want to.
professordeath Yes...You're correct it was an H you had in that pic. I did learn on an H...then moved to a VL which I still have.

Here is the overall paintjob (needs touch ups) Ugh! a gap! I think I will cut out the USAF emblem so no stipes are used. Good or bad idea?
Canopy is on so now let's fill some gaps!
Ok so I'll just say it! I have a 1/48 Testors Italeri AC-130 that will be built maybe by the end of the build!
Bondo, that F-100 will be nice! Will you be building it as a Weasel or Misty FAC?
Pilot, a Specter sounds awesome! In 1/48 that will be BIG! I wish that I had the room for one of those.
Well I am nearing the finish line of the F-100 that I am building for another GB here (Monogram Mafia II) that I started a few days before this GB began. I thought this would be a good place to share how it looks now. This is gonna be marked from a squadron flying out of TanSon Nhut in 1965 on "temporary duty" (TDY).
Once this Hun is complete, I will kick off my F-104.
Sounds great stik!
Stik- she will be a Misty flying out of Phu Cat in 1967- 1968. I need to find 2.75 rocket pods and 335 gal tanks though.

Sounds good to me. The fuel tanks in the kit are not the proper size? If the rocket pods are the 19 shot type, I suggest getting the Hasegawa weapons set
Nice lookin set.
I'm in with Academy's 1/72 A-37 Dragonfly.
Cheers

I'm just taking it one GB at a time.
professordeath Stick: Again, the 100 looks good and I am anxious to learn your technique for giving the back end some heat discoloration because that is something I've struggled to master.

In all honesty this will be something new. I have not tried to do heat discoloration before.
Yeah be sure to fix the issue before painting becuse it was a major pain for m. And about the A-6, I couldnt find it at the hobby shop so I;m going with something else until I order it. But I will do the A-6! I'm not too pleased with my phantom as of now!
proffesor, I'm doing the LA AF63 58 TH4 Phantom, are you doing the same? or could you do a different scheme?
