The Cold War warriors among you will have instantly identified an F-104 Starfighter and an F-100 Super Sabre[1]. Various loose bits were duly reattached and a black undercoat slapped on.
I opted for a ‘bare metal’ finish so the black was topped with a coat of Revell silver. The finish is intentionally rough as (a) it’s all these models deserve, and (b) for the role I have in mind they need to have a decidedly ‘pre-owned’ appearance.
I’m not sure what make the Starfighter is but the Sabre is an ancient Revell kit - the evidence is embossed on the tail![1] although more than one correspondent incorrectly identified it as a MiG-19. Splash another friendly...
Curious to see what your plans are for finishing them.

ReplyDeleteNothing wrong with a Starfighter. Unless you’re the poor sod flying the thing....
