Trumpeter F-105G 1:72
Hi,
not built anything for a couple of years, but i finally decided to dig this out and give it a bash! It is the Trumpeter 1:72 F-105G, 62-4440, based awith the 17th WWs, 388th TFW at Korat RTAFB, circa early 1970s. It was built OOB, nothing added, and airbrushed using the Vallejo Air War USAF Colors"Vietnam war" scheme sea.... first time using them, and i liked the simplicty of them!! The speedbrakes have not been glued and it was only after doing the photos i noticed the top one is raised!! I will probably get a different pitot tube though as that one is a tad chunky!!
