F-15 is my favorite air plane, I like the camo and your F-15 looks like a tough veteran.
Besides the academy decals are not robust in quality according to my experience 😎.

Thanks Chan. Well I have to make a new f-15 in the future. This was brush Painted and was probably a bit to hard for my skill level at that moment. Thats why i reworked it at a later date. The decals where really bad indeed. Almost all unuseble.

I'm afraid so Vincent, the decals made by academy itself can be disaster. I dunno which scale you'll build but I happen to be kinda familiar with 1/72 scale F-15, the best choice so far can be academy 12550 or great wall hobby L7201. The decals in 12550 were printed by cartograph with super good quality.
I started airbrushing in 2021 as well, I will surely follow your work if you build another F-15.😎

Well I like the look of this academy one. But I really needs to get some aftermarket decals if I build this one again. 12550 with cartograph seems like a good choice.

Nice work on this., The decals can be a real pain, but you did a nice recovery.

Album info
A F-15c I completed on 17-03-2020. I really disliked the result so I never uploaded it back then. I made a mistake on the canopy and had many problem with the amazingly bad decals. So I rushed it beck then. But I decided to revisit it and fix some problems. I pained some decals myself and ficed the gloss finish. I also decided to make i more weathered.
