Very nice cockpit! How do you find the 3D decals, are they worth the extra cost?

Welcome mates. In 1:72 scale 3D decals are a way better than pe and my hands are to shaky to paint. I use them for most of the models with open canopies. For inflight models and with pilots i think it's not necessary. With Kelik and Eduard 3D i'm not always happy, but Quinta for me it's the first choice.

After all, I could not stand it until tomorrow and applied glossy varnish again. This time I used polyurethane Vallejo 2...

Excellent project, watching. The Argentine Étendard aircraft were effective in causing significant damage during the Falklands/Malvinas conflict.

Since I have started the exact same kit, turning it into a Marineflieger 104 with Kormorans, I will most definitely be following 🙂

Danke Bernd 🙂
@Michael I only have the kit without the Marineflieger decals, hence the Peddinghaus ones. I 3d printed the Kormorans with the specific pylons for the F-104G. They were designed by cults3d.com/@Sufa312 after photos I have taken at the Wehrtechnische Studiensammlung in Koblenz. I think he did a great job and the files are free 🙂

Welcome guys and thank you for your interest 🙂
Started working on the ejection seat. Decided to add the PE to the seat from the kit and see how this will look. Alternatively I have a resin MB MK.GQ-7(A) from Aires, but this thing does not look very different from the kit's seat. And the straps, etc. are PE as well.

This project will have both pilots on the intercom and watching the engine startup process. That is why the same type figure is used in both cockpits. They both monitor the engine to ensure that the EGT and RPM is increasing appropriately. Each has their hand on the control stick to be able to open their MIC as they confirm everything is normal at start. The plan is to have the aircraft loaded with a Nuke (Apache Cruise Missile?). Seems appropriate to me for the days we live in now...

Maybe go for resin seats as well?
Seems like kit plastic never can compete with resin seats. 🙂
Though, I no longer crave for resin interior for the cockpit because of the work, but seats are ok.

I'll paint these up and see if I can tolerate them. If they are too bland, I have time to change my mind! Thanks for the idea!

As I have begun work on this kit, I am yet again struck by the lack of information in the variations and options provided in the kit. For example, the tail tip is not called out that applies to the 2000N version. While the nose of the 2000D is provided in the kit, it has to be modified to make it correct for the 2000N. Oh bother…
20 July, 02:40
![](/profiles/img/60714-348-s.jpg)
Selected "most appropriate" tail tip and mounted the correct nose to fuselage.

Okay, now I'm excited to get some paint on this cockpit!!! ResKit, you guys have done some great work with your 3D Resin Printing!

Oh, did you fiddle with the nose part to make it match the N version, or did you have to buy aftermarket nose for the N version? I have this kit in my stash, but haven't really looked any it yet.
28 August, 05:43
![](/profiles/img/60714-348-s.jpg)
I'm using the D nose but converting it to an N version. I'm also closing the "sucker doors" on the inlets to represent an engine that is not yet started... I'm assuming initial hydraulic power is applied from the APU and auxiliary hydraulic pumps have brought the gear door up. I'm going to close the speed breaks for pre-engine start configuration...

Looks like BAM has some corrected noses still need the N one. Maybe reach out to him. I could use the corrected nose for this kit also. The Reskit stuff looks amazing.

Thanks for the heads up! The BAM nose looks fantastic! Sadly, the 2000N nose has a pitot tube and does not have the RDY antenna lines. It seems that much of the 2000N systems are somewhat earlier than the -5 systems. Everything I can find on the 2000N seems to be somewhat austere compared with the 2000-5. The ResKit cockpit is worth every penny!

Like it 😀👍
Nice when the pilot looks like he's actually doing something and engaged with the craft.
30 August, 15:22
![](/profiles/img/60714-348-s.jpg)
Thanks. It's really sad to remove detail from the ejection seat, but that is the only way to get the pilot in place...
30 August, 22:47

The pilot is from REEDOAK. They have several different figures in various poses so the realism can be developed based on the aircraft scenario. This model is being build to represent events just prior to engine start.

Remaining cockpit items:
1. Glass
2. Decals on seats
3. A little more weathering
4. Fix pilot's France Flag
5. Add WSO's Right shoulder patch
6. Check that I can get the canopy actuators in after everything is assembled...
7. Add HUD glass

Thanks, a little more work done on the cockpit this evening.. need to fire up my 3d printer soon for the jet exhaust but so far happy with how things are going together

Following, I am jealous that you have a 3D printer (soon, I will be joining you).

Great work so far looking forward to the rest of the model. Jennifer, having a 3d printer is a lot of fun, and also you can get some great prices on them now.

Bambu Labs came out with the A1 in November, which is only 500 CDN. They did a total recall on them in the last few weeks, but they expect to have them back on the shelves by May. I am waiting impatiently.
12 February, 10:12
![](/profiles/img/132875-803-s.jpg)
Took me a little while to get back on this, cleaned out the 3d printer and printed out the jet exhaust replacement parts.. now to prime and continue assembly...

Very nice texturing and weld marks on this Soviet beast. The photo etch details is a nice touch.

![](/profiles/img/143588-880-s.jpg)
Thank you, Mate! This photo etch is selfmade from 0.2mm brass plate ))) I need to buy the photo etch bender, to make it better. ))
10 July, 07:14
![](/profiles/img/143588-880-s.jpg)
Thanks, Mate!
I try to make weld beads like on my favorite YT cannel )))
1) I make a groove with scraiber, if it necessary on the plane surfaces.
2) Next, i prepare 2 component putty, and make a thin "laces" out of it.
3) After that, I carefully fill the grooves and angles with putty "laces" and apply welding texture with special tool (toothpick with tip warped with brass sheet, witch forms small speared C shape).
That is all.

Thanks, Friends! It is a really exciting and addictive process )))
I would like too ask, can anyone tell me, how to paint a "glass"? I mean, i need to imitate a glass on the headlight, and i can't find info, how to do it.
27 August, 10:05
![](/profiles/img/103989-963-s.jpg)
I do a mix of light blue, light beige and white. Using only white is just too stark. Hit it with a little clear gloss, and then a grimy wash. Still doesn't compare to the kits with the clear plastic lens covers, but doesn't look bad.
