The kit I present to you is just a nice kit .... or the F-100C in the Trumpeter 1/48 scale. Months ago I am surfing the internet or stumbled upon some photos fi F-100C/D/F former turkish air force, imported into the United-States where .... and then took part in museums or as some specimen was put back in flying condition by Tracor flight System.

I should state that I have added the cockpit, the exhaust resin dell'Aires, and I decided to open some door in the fuselage, and I rebuilt the inside of the fuselage. I had a bit of difficulty to accommodate the drain, but for the rest of the assembly has flown by very quickly. Arriving at the painting, I painted everything with the aluminum Metalizer Model-Master and polished after all,I applied the Maskol with a sponge where I wanted to create chipped paint.

After scoring the camouflage colors Gunze, I removed all the maskol and trying to achieve realistic chipped paint, and applying the decals, all cut one by one, to remove the transparent board that would have caused the annoying silvering! A light wash with gouache, and are passed to make the paint "burned" in the part of the fuselage near the engine exhaust. Without this I mounted the carts and the canopy and the job is finished.

Just delete any of the boxes below you don't need.....it's not important to include them.....they are there to give you an idea of the finished article. It is best to limit your article to no more than 60 or so photos, so the finished webpage won't take too long to open.
