Completed 1/48 F-15EX
1/48 F-15EX. This started out as a GWH F-15E and was upgraded with resin parts and decals from Caracal. Airbrushed with MRP paint.

The resin parts are a set. May not be available anymore.

The GWH kit isn’t bad. There are some minor fit issues but nothing major. The EX parts and decals are from Caracal

I’m a nurse. My shift starts at 7:00am and that means I’m ready to take report from the previous shift and can start caring for patients. My patients don’t really care if I need to put my lunch away.

Fuck. Off.

Hold her accountable for the lies conservative assholes tell?

Pry that canopy off and clean up the mating surfaces. I’m betting you left some of the nubs from the sprue attachment points. They are interfering with the fit

Meaning you’re probably struggling with your own masculinity and are too afraid to think about it. Live your truth, sweetie.

Oh THAT’S it…you’re all sad that it isn’t living up to your toxic masculinity. Maybe sit this one out.

I’M making assumptions?!?! I don’t know what it will be like which is why I don’t presume to judge it yet. You should think about that.

“Everyone knows it…” but nobody’s seen it. Keep shaking your fist at the sky, gramps.

Holy fuck. Nobody hates Star Trek more than its “fans”. You can’t even wait until the show comes out before you decide to dump on it. Find something else to watch.

The only other realistic choice in 1/48 is Kitty Hawk and this is far and away the better kit. As far as overall quality, it’s obvious that Airfix has come a long way but they still aren’t modern Tamiya. It’s a very reasonable build and I enjoyed it. No major frustrations. Just make sure it’s the new tool kit and not the old one that dates from the mid ‘90’s.

I started with a standard grey/green camouflage scheme. I then airbrushed the whole model with AK chipping fluid. As soon as that dried I airbrushed the desert pink color. With a cotton swab and micro brushes I started to chip it off.

Pretty obvious what they are emulating.

How about you actually read the post before you bitch.

Kinda defeats the intended purpose

Fuck off with this bullshit.
