Bowcat's 1/48 Revell F-15E Strike Eagle

[RM6239]

Bob,
Looking good, I like the nozzles. I tend to stretch my decalling over a couple of sessions as well, otherwise you will go crazy with modern jets.

cheers

Cheers Ross.

You're not wrong, I usually build AFV's so I'm used to 5 decals for the entire kit. :tears-of-joy:

[Mr Bowcat]

Small update ('cos I haven't done much this week).

Finished off the decals and got the hardpoints fitted (these had been painted off-model).

Also got the bombs and missiles painted. There's a few decals to go on these but I'm going to gloss them first.

Looking good, decals on the weapons can be time consuming, but will look good after.

Cheers Alun, after all the decals on the aircraft I'm quite prepared for the ordnance. :smiling5:

Terrific work Bob. A very neat and crisp piece of modelling. After all the trials and tribulations its all coming together well.

Looking mighty nice now bob , it might seem like a trial doing the decals but the difference it makes to the ordnance is amazing and can only complement the excellent build of the airframe, cheers tony

[Mr Bowcat]

Cheers guys.

Hi Bob
That acrylic wash looks good. I have not tried it for fear of it not being 'adjustable' like oils. You have certainly got it to look good.
The decals have gone on very nicely and as always with modern planes - so many!!
Jim

[Mr Bowcat]

Cheers Jim.

The acrylic ink was a bit of a shot in the dark as I also usually use oils & enamels.

[Mr Bowcat]

Decals on. That's the last of them thankfully. Just waiting for the gloss coat to dry then I can start weathering. :smiling3:
