Hi
This is Tamiya's F-15E half plastic kit half Meccano Lots of parts are screwed together , found the fit is better if these are not used , after making a few of the series .

Always liked the TMOTA 2005 scheme that was held at Mountain Home AFB , Revell did an issue of their F-15E/D back in 2010 with these markings included as the kit is only a rough representation of the prototype E , thought I would try the markings on the Tamiya kit , luckily they were very nice to use and the fit was pretty good only a few small touch up in places . The one thing that was missing oin the sheet were the black Tiger stripes on the flaps/tail planes but these were easily made from black decal

Finished in Xtracolor FS16118 Gunship grey Paulclad and Hataka Satin Lacquer varnish

Thanks fort looking

Paul
