This is my
1/72 ERTL F-104G in the retirement colors of WtG-61, which is the German test
unit at Munching. For it's retirement, it was painted in this very catchy scheme
and flown at the Open House.

The kit was
built completely OOB. I even left off any weathering as I wanted to capture a
clean aircraft for this occasion.
Painting was done
with white spray primer, then the wings were masked off for painting. I used RML
04 and 05 for the yellow and red (of course!) and Model Master Aircraft Interior
Black to finish off the tri-colored wing. The decals were applied to heavy coats
of Future and then sealed in with the same.
