the other two guys are Michael Phillips and David Barclay, join our little group build,

Sure, Germen. This is actually for a groupbuild on reddit, but there's no reason it can't be part of yours either

Looks great Bryce, those seats are fantastic. I am still waiting for mine to arrive in the mail from UK. Our little group build is highly casual (and quite accidental), so you are already in it just by building a Revell Strike Eagle on Scalemates. LOL

Thanks, Michael. I just took a look at yours and it seems to be in a really good place. I built the Revell Mudhen a long time ago but it's still a pretty good kit and one that goes together quite well. What paints are you going to be using to finish it?
27 October 2016, 15:37
![](/profiles/img/16625-287-s.png)
Thanks Bryce! This is my first attempt at this kit, and first F-15 in general (15th model total). I agree, it really does go together nicely, I am sure I will build another some day. I am using Gunze H305 Gunship Gray. I am trying to go a bit darker on mine, since pics of the Alaskan F-15Es tend to show them to be pretty dark and less faded than some other squadrons.

Eh, it might be a little bit, Germen, but once everything is in, it'll dull down a little bit and won't be hit with so much light. The correct color is Neutral Gray, or Haze Gray in navy terms. I used RAF Medium Gray which was close enough for my liking.

This is absolutely the best 15E in 1/48 scale out there. I've built one and I have another to build once I find some cool decals aftermarket.

Donald, maybe this one :

I agree, Donald. I've heard good things about the newish Academy kit but I still prefer this one. And there are a lot of good AM sets for it. I have the Astra Decals set for all the Lakenheath jets, that I'm using for this build, but Twobobs also has a few good ones, like the TMOTA set that Germen shared.

That one is the one I did.
Germen, yes! One of the guys in my IPMS chapter did that one. If I cant find anything else interesting, I am tempted to do that one.

Sorry about the multiple posts. My computer wasnt showing them. Piece of junk it is.

Heh, I thought you were having some problems there, Donald. I wish adding links in comments here was a bit easier than it is.

i'am thinking azbout bying those decals also, i like it that they have hidden a She-Devil and the Playboy bunny in the tiger stripes. But on the other side than i have 3 Mountainhome Tigers, the one i'm building with the 9/11 rememberence, the previous Revell kit the 1998 tigermeet, and then this 2005. And i would also use the Acadmey kit. I saw it at friend of mine and it looks very good also.

I am going to order them tomorrow. And their new F16A Viper set.

This is really coming along Nicely Bryce! (see what I did there? LOL)
Looking forward to seeing your progress!!!

i got scared when i saw the right wing leading edge thinking something happened to the model, than i realized it was intentional and relieved. 🙂

Great looking Eagle! love the paint chipping effects and the cannibalized panels and such.

Coming along nicely. I've never seen the E with light panels before interesting.
17 January 2017, 06:40
![](/profiles/img/21748-180-s.jpg)
They were some replacement panels from, I'm guessing, a C model. I've seen more recent photos of the same jet and they've been repainted to match the rest of it.

There is a pic out there of an E with an air brake from a C. Looks rather interesting.

![](/profiles/img/17760-646-s.jpg)
It must be the aircraft version of Panzer Primer. Anyway the colour variation looks nice and adds interest. 👍

I think I have that photo, Donald, or at least a photo of a mudhen with a C speed brake. Pretty sure the photo is a jet from Mountain Home, Idaho.
And thanks, guys. Hoping to finish her up by the weekend.
