Murph's Model - North American F-100D Super Sabre, 1/29

This is a beta build of Murph's Model, North American F-100D Super Sabre, Don Schmenk FW594 version. The original scale is 1/29, meaning a length of 16-3/4 inches, but now reduced to the more common scale of 1/33 (14-3/4 inches long).

What left to be done is the installation of the wing fences that I have forgotten before taking pictures and finishing off with the armament, too many to choose from and to hang on the pylons. Just finished three of the five and two different drop tanks to go. The craziest of Murph's bombs is the cluster bomblet dispenser which has 19 tubes to glue on to a circular disc of 8 mm in diameter and then a fairing to cover the tubes (see last picture, that on the right). Don't forget, you are supposed to print twice the armament sheet to build. Man, it gives me headache which is which to fix on the pylons. And there are only six pylons to hang all seven bombs and drop tanks.
