F-104 Starfighter

[inkworm]

I see a lot of people starting projects but never reaching a complete drawing or just having one finished drawing.

I find that deadlines are a good reason for finishing something off though it is nice when a few variants of the same aircraft are required it saves a little time!

What's going to be next once you've wrapped up the 104 options, I think the F4 would keep you out of trouble for a year or so

Once I finish the 104 (which will be a while because there are still so many paintschemes left to do) I will be doing a series of F-4's starting with the F-4B and working my way through the entire familyline. Perhaps finish my F-102 and do some more hunters

Doh, forgot to click 'send' and was still in outbox, just as bad as forgetting to attach files or links!

Should be with you now, been a bit busy last few days as getting garage converted into an office for me as the space is needed for little inky v2

wow some F-4s is comming ! i really look forward to that ! just a little advice: don´t use Resins drawings as reference !!!

Hi AP Some of the RV resin drawings are reasonable but a lot of fitting is wrong like exhausts etc. Jake Melampy has a new book out on the F-4 Phantom that I am planning to buy soon, it looks like it has some great walkarounds pictures!

Added some fasteners and messed a bit with a paintscheme, I find it helps me stay motivated if I have a recognisable paintscheme in there. This one isn't too distracting and I like the look of the two tone grey

Still doesn't look as round as it should, could be the shadows being too dark on the intake and the highlight by the tail pipe which are giving it a bit of a perceived distortion.

Can you have too many Starfighters???

[Supah]

Well it's in no way finished and the light grey base coat makes highlights harder to tune.



And I don't think there is such a thing as too many starfighters BH
