Fg f-104 rcaf

I'm a big fan of many of the modelers and creators here so I wanted to share my latest build and not just lurk around. It's a Fiddler's Green F-104 in RCAF colors. I picked this model because I like the century series of fighters and it seemed like a more complex model than I'm used to. I'm hoping to build up my skills so I can tackle some Airdave and Murph's Models I've purchased.

I will post more pictures as the build progresses. So far I have all of the fuselage done except the exhaust. This is a long plane!

I didn't know FG has that model.F-104 page doesn't mention it. Price on page includes more than one color version?

That's very good looking fit of parts,aluminium weathered finish effect looks really good too.

You're doing a great job. Did you do the repaint on that model?

FG files often come with more than one livery.
But I don't have this one either!

I did not do the repaint, it was included with the model. I think the artist did a great job capturing the look of metal.

They don't always announce when new versions are added either.

I thought the artwork looked familiar!
So this was done back in 2012.
It is available at FG? or did you get it somewhere else?
