Built during winter 1998,
I used an F-15 model cockpit pieces and pilot for the cockpit,and
added some spare decals from a P-51 model to make it seem more
interesting and realistic. I added killshots, warning labels,
etc. Then I took an artists pen and went over all the grooves
to add detail, and used black paint to make oil leaks. I painted
on the nose stripes, and lightly went over all the red with light
gray. Finally, I used a candle to make scorch marks on the torpedo
tubes an engines. |
