Taking forever

This one seems to be dragging on a bit.

Decals started

The F-15 decals have driven me nuts, almost unusable. At the moment I have no star and bar on the right side of the fuselage and under the wing. The stencils I'm going to source from the spares. That'll teach me not to wait for my order to arrive. The corsair is coming along nicely though.

F-15c update

Now painted first colours on just needs the darker grey. I've left off the tail fins because I thought it would be easier to paint and decal separately. Just found some pics of the avionics bay and it appears to be a metallic blue / green colour.

Decals are done

The sharkmouth is being a bit stubborn but apart from that It's gone ok . I don't know why but I painted the top of the fin in blue it should be white, so I'll change that.

Decals ahoy

Just waiting for the last coat of klear to dry on the corsair then it's on with the decals. I'm still not convinced with the blue colour on the nose, it's still too pale.

The amt F-15c is going OK, lots of fiddling with panels and lots of sanding but, I'm really enjoying it. I've ordered a quickboost seat for it because the kit one doesn't fit well, it looks crap too. I'm still not sure about the decals for this yet, i have ordered some more but i do like the kit option so i think I'll give it a try first and see what happens.
