1/48 F7U-3 Cutlass "Grim Reapers"

[wacek85]

1/48 F7U-3 Cutlass from Hobbycraft.
Of course what-if in the Grim Reapers Sqn. markings. Missiles from Hasegawa set, seat from Aires. Painted with Tamiya paints and weathered with Tamiya pigments and washes. Hope you'll like it

Absolutely gorgeous . Good plane ruined by bad engines. Good thing about whifery is the ability to build a kit beset with inaccuracies and not give an EEEEK;D

[Captain Canada]

Very nice ! Love the colours and the weapons load.

Dude, glorious!!!


Very nice work. Looks great. It's a shame such a unique plane didn't last long.

[Dork the kit slayer]

Have you seen this at http://www.whatifmodellers.com/index.php/topic,20326.2925.html ?:

And do you know the source of the Vought Cutlass jet fling wing (first flight in 1948)? It was the Vought Cutcut piston twin-boomer project of 1945:

That's sweet..... I like your style, Tophe .  Thanks for the link up. I like the twin boom proto.   

[Old Wombat]

Great build!


May need to buy one in 1/48 &, along with my remaining F4D-1, SciFi the heck out of it.

Cutlass with Skyray wings should look tasty.

Lovely job, I've a soft spot for the Cutlass and have at least one in the stash
