Academy 1:48 F-15E

February 12, 2014 · in Aviation · · 16 · 5.1K

Hello everybody!
This is my last build, the huge Strike Eagle. Buildind this beast took some time, dry fitting, sanding and filling is essential to achieve a decent finish, especially on intakes and fuselage-wings join.
The weapon loadout is huge in this kit: there is a lot of ordnance you can fit to the aircraft. I choose this asimetrical loadout I saw on the web.
The model was painted with Gunze aqueous and weathered with oils.
Hope you like it even though the quality of the pictures.

Best wishes:

Emeterio.
