Hey guys
this is my Monogram F-105D. A really nice clip with the typical Revell/Monogram
70's 80's quality. Raised panel lines, but it's
okay.

Decals
are a mix from the original kit decals (which were very dried out and likely to
shatter) and the Revell Wild Weasel Thud kit for the stencils. I also added
an ALQ-87 ECM Pod on the right pylon and a Mk, 83 fuse extended bomb on the
left.
Most detailing was
made in the cockpit by completely rebuilding the ejection seat by using parts
from the original seat and various scratchbuilt details like the backplate of
the seat, the whole upper side of the seat and scratchbuild belts and oxy hoses.
Painting was made
with mixed Revell colors and Model Master Metalizer for the engine and the
landing gear. I wanted a dirty, used look for this warhorse. I
sprayed parts of the jet in aluminium and masked them before applying the SEA
camo. After drying I just peeled off the masking, and I had the look of
peeled off paint.
Hope you like the pictures.
Philipp
