Clifford KeeslerWim, I will be building the German version. Thanks Mikey, I hope I can do her justice.

Erik LeijdensToo bad to hear that Clifford! Germans are already over-represented here 😄

Wim van der LuijtDutch markings make all planes 50% cooler.....it's common knowledge 😉

Wilfried BogaertsWhat about the Belgian Air Force, the only city with it's own Air Force! 😄

Clifford KeeslerI think I have an F-16 in the stash with Belgian markings, @Wim the German markings aren't carved in stone. I will have to check the internet for References for a Dutch one, as the kit Instructions are not real clear on the colors.

Clifford KeeslerOK it looks like the Dutch ones are dark gray and dark green on top with a slightly lighter gray on the belly. I actually like it, so I guess you guys win. Dutch it shall be.

Erik LeijdensGood to hear that Clifford👍!! The colors on top should be BS640 extra dark sea grey and BS641 dark green and BS636 PRU blue for the underside. Revell's color instruction is not correct on this kit.

Clifford KeeslerThanks Erik, Gunther, Wim and Augie. I will have to get some Pru Blue, I have the other colors.

Wim van der LuijtLooking very good Clifford! Like I said, 50% cooler (at least 🙂 ) with Dutch markings

Clifford KeeslerThank you Wim, and Thomas. I get that streaked effect by applying a pastel wash to it and let it dry for about 20 minutes, then take a moistened paper towel and remove the wash in the direction of airflow until I get the desired effect. Canopy mask are removed now and she is ready for final weathering/chipping,and final small bits.

Clifford KeeslerThanks Martien. I think my next project is going to be my Iterali 1/32 F-104G, so let's take a vote Dutch or German?

Peter HardyCliffy, keep building these classic birds please! Just love watching you create these things!

Wim van der LuijtVery nice finish Clifford....much cooler than German markings 😉

Clifford KeeslerThank you all for your very kind words, they are very much appericated. @Peter I am glad you like my "classic" birds. I enjoy taking a less expensive kit and make it look as nice as some of the new super kits, though I am now starting to invest in some of the newer kits.

Michael PhillipsWow, that is nice! Now I gotta start looking for an F-84 for my stash... LOL

Clifford KeeslerThanks Michael. The Hobby Bosss kit looks pretty nice. I think Encore's release of it is still around. And I think Kinetic did one also. I think Erik did the Iterali one.
