Palette cleanser OOB build

Alec KCheers friends! After the Neptune, I needed a palette cleanser build, so I reached for a long-neglected kit from SH I promised I would build too long ago. It's a OOB (well, 98%ish) and a lightning build by my standards. Hope you enjoy, it truly is an excellent kit.

Jakub FialaHa, Alec and OOB project! Who would believe this 🙂
Very nice work so far, mate. I built a bigger sister of her ( Eduard bf 109E-7) and i remember, that put those parts of fuselage nose together is not a piece of cake.

Alec KČau Jakube, well not many, but as this is already done I can wouch for the veracity of my claim 😉
As to the kit: the nose assembly was indeed a bit of a puzzle, but very doable. I wonder how closely SH and Eduard cooperated on this, the kit feels very Edíkovskej. Overall, a joy to put together. Cheers!

TH SCALE MODELS (Thomas Haberl)Nice topic and really convincing progress Alec - taking a seat ☺️

Landlubber MikeNice start Alec - I laughed after seeing the title "palette cleanser" but no doubt for sanity you needed one after that amazing Neptune build. I had a similar need for a palette cleanser after my JRS-1 build, and that was nothing compared to your Neptune!

Alec KThanks guys! The comic relief is not my own (saw it put that way by someone), but it does exemplify the woes of someone afflicted with AMS. Mind you, the Neptune started as an OOB…

Clifford KeeslerWelcome Nathan, Augie and John. @ John, no it means Ready to build., once I have everything I want as far as aftermarket stuff I put it all in the box and mark it RTB so I know everything is there. Otherwise I sometimes end up buying stuff I already have. A quick update on this one, paint and decals are done and and sealed. Waiting for anti-glare panel to dry and I will apply the wash. So getting near the end on this one. I will try and get some more pictures up soon. Spoiler, I did not do the box art version.

Clifford KeeslerThank you very much Villiers, Augie and John, your nice comments mean a lot. It was a nice build.
17 October, 21:07
Clifford KeeslerThank you very much Nathan and jaero, I am glad you like it. @ Nathan, I thought it would be nice in that scheme, I had never seen one in those colors. I have the usual black one and the "C" I have will be done in NMF Nasa markings and I have a "R" which will also be in black. All I need to get is the 2 seater and do it in the white. Lol.

Nathan DempseyI was going to paint mine as used in the Cuban Missile Crisis which was supposed to be Dark Sea Blue. I really like yours though. Came out looking sharp!
18 October, 19:09
Clifford KeeslerThank you again. The decal sheet I have has those markings on it. It was shot down over Cuba. I think the pilot's last name was Anderson, he was either a Maj. or a Col. do not remember which. I lived in Key West Fla. during the Cuban missile crisis. My dad was stationed at Boca Chica naval air station. He was in the Air Force, but they had a F-106 squadron there. The Navy flew the RF-8 Crusader's out of there.

Clifford KeeslerI do not know for sure, looks like it's the wrong color, but could be.
19 October, 03:39
Clifford KeeslerThe one shot down during the Cuban missile crisis was painted Navy Blue and had the tail# 6676.
19 October, 03:42
Clifford KeeslerDoes not mean they did not get another one at some point. The one in the picture appears to be either silver or Natural metal.
19 October, 03:45
Ben MI wouldn't think the Cubans would do a totally accurate set of markings, it's an outdoor display with a primarily political purpose.
