1:48 = Hasegawa F-104C

by Martin Kurz
--------------------

Steve Bamford will insert full sized version of photo 01.jpg here

This is = Hasegawa's F-104C in the markings of the 479th TFW flown by Col. George = Laven Jr. The kit was built pretty much OOB, except for some = scratchbuilt details in the cockpit (e.g. ejection seat details) and the = landing gear area. The nose pitot tube was substituted by two hypodermic = needles. Decals are from an - AFAIK now out of production - Albatros = Modelworks sheet covering rare F-104 birds.

The kit is = a very good fit, only the intakes required a little filler to blend them = to the rest of the fuselage. An annoying fact were multiple ejection = marks on exterior surfaces like flaps and rudder. I filled them with Mr. = Surfacer using a fine brush desperately trying to avoid the destruction = of the beautiful detail sorrounding them. This was particularly tedious = work as the NMF would later show every little scratch and dent in it's = full splendour.

Colours used were = Alclad II and Gunze Acrylics. For the basic airframe colours I sprayed = Aluminium, Dark Aluminium and White Aluminium (sparingly) and a mixture = of these to match the panel colour pattern to the real F-104 as good as = possible. Some panels with a slight blueish hue were oversprayed with = Gunze transparent blue.

For the darker areas = around the engine I additionally used Alclad II Steel and Jet exhaust. = The heat discolourations were done with Alclad II Jet exhaust and Gunze = transparent colours (blue, orange and smoke). Before decaling everything = was sealed with Gunze acrylic gloss, since Microset/sol sometimes = slightly corrodes the Alclad finish. The decals went on with no major = hassles and responded well to the decaling solutions. At last I applied = a shading for all panel lines and recesses with highly thinned dark = grey/brown Hansa airbrush colours. Overall, the painting and finishing = took much longer than the plastic work and decaling together.
