This is the second
32nd scale plane that I have completed. Since I just wanted to slap this
thing together and see what an F-15C looks like in 32nd scale I decided on only
adding a Quickboost resin aftermarket seat and making some custom decals to
depict a Bitburg jet. The Bitburg jet I modeled this after uses the Mod Eagle
variation of the common compass grey scheme used on F-15C's. Unfortunately, I
don't have the pilot names for the jet as of now.

This kit was painted almost
entirely with Gunze lacquers with the bare metallic area being painted
with Alclad 2 lacquer. Post shading and preshading were used as well as
some limited panelling and washes. Decals were applied on a clearcoat,
sealed with another clearcoat and subjected to a final Testors mattcoat
spray. All small details were painted with enamels from Tamiya. Not a bad
model for $65 here in the Philippines!
Thank you to the
folks at ARC and to my buddies from IPMS Manila, the coolest model club in the
Philippines!
