Killer F-15 to replace my A-10........

[SigfanUSAF]

My wife was unhappy about my A-10 in the little girls room, so I've started a more "appropriate" F-15 to replace it. Basic Revell 1/48 F-15, custom camo, and she'll get full USAF markings.

And of course I had to make a motivational poster:

Yes, the camo is much more appropriate.
Ideas for underwing loads ? lipstick, things like this ?

Cool ! And that 'motivational poster' is hilarious ! There's a number of us who have built pink aeroplanes for our daughters. Except Radish. He builds them for himself

My eldest daughter (no, not the one who's the RAF's best etc etc....) built her own pink Spitfire when she was around 6 or 7. She used the old Airfix Mk IX kit, from the blister pack years, and painted it pink and blue on top and camo green underneath.

But she put the wings on upside down and swapped left to right so the landing gear stuck up above the wings on each side! When asked why she looked scathingly at me and replied 'If the wheels are underneath the wings how will the pilot know if they are up or down???'

Er, right.......... [Exit Dad shaking head at young female 'logic']

Thank you for sharing fellas, I'm glad I'm not the only one 

Here she is completed, I'm not decaling any more. I put them where they are intentionally, no rivet counting

I'm still laughing at this comment!

Makes perfect sense to me

nice looking plane... but the motivational poster and the upside down wings story really made this post hilarious

That camo might actually work ! Looks great. You hang it up yet ?
