*********** ....keep it coming please!

To avoid losing interest in a kit and so not finish it, I work simultaneously in all the three models.

The three WhatIfs are all at the same stage: now they are under the  latest applications of putty to close the small mistakes then will follow rescribing.

Amazing to see all three so close to the paint stage! I know how hard you have worked on all of them!

I'm near to the desperation: there is also too much to be done before the painting.

In these minutes I'm completing the F-15/Phantom  rescribing.

From the my last post to today I have almost completed the surface's scribing (about only at  at 90% in truth).

This is the work done in th last two afternoons:



Many of You surely will judge overdone the my rescribing work on the F-104 Delta :
OK it's true but this is a my exact choice because very probably the model will end to have an overall finish in gray/light gray so I need to have a "moved" 3D surface.

I am continuing the my idea of to go ahead with the three models I have in hand now, one by one, yes, but all together at the same time.
while the single-engined Phantom seems to me as  be going forward well, later this afternoon I applied the pre shading the F-104 Delta.

Today I put the hands on the airbrush: this is the first layer of gray sprayed.

The plane remind me the XB70 Valkyrie. Coming from a F-104... this is really a modelistic heroism evidence.
I like those angles and lines. When I see this aircraft  I feel it's a pity don't see  flying it.

Today almost completed the undersurfaces.

Another little hand of gray on the wings and engines and all will be ok.

I've missed a few posts, she's coming along fantastically! :party: :party: :party:
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.
