1/48 Tamiya F-84G Thunderjet
Here is my recently finished model. This is 1/48 Tamiya F-84G Thunderjet with Turkish aerobatic display team markings . The first aerobatic display team in Turkish Air Force was established in 1952 using the name “National” (Milli). The team existed until 1962, performing in Turkey, Italy and Belgium.
Cockpit of Tamiya's kit modified by some parts of Aires set like instrument panel and seat belts.
Natural metal areas painted with Alclad lacquers.
National insignias and flags are from Turquoise decal set.
Code numbers (282 & 102282) are from my spare box

Up to your normal high standards Tony. That red really stands out. What did you use for the red?
Tolga ULGUR said on November 30, 2014
The red is regular Tamiya s acrylic Al.
