1/48 Hasegawa F-104S ASA M
It's officially down . I present the awesome 1/48 Hasegawa F-104S ASA M. I used the DACO Starfighter update set , Tauro decals , Master Brass Pitot tube and Royal Resin wheels , cutting edge ejection seat . Painted with Mr. Paint , Alclad and Tamiya .I won't be doing open canopy again. To much of a pain ! Enjoy 🙂

Some very nice detail work there, Brian...sweet lookin' build!
Brian, pretty F-104!
Outstanding "Missile With A Man In It," Brian It will be a shame if you do no more open canopy aircraft ... you do the inside "office" so well!
All your models are finished to a consistently high standard, Brian, this one looks just great.
Brian, I've noticed that no matter how its painted a 104 always looks fast.
This is the type of paint scheme that has to be done well to be interesting, and that's what you've done here. Well done !
Superb attention to details! Nice clean, smooth bird here. I like.
Very nice looking F104.
Great looking 104! This is a scheme not seen often on one, and it looks really nice. Very clean build, and your cockpit looks fantastic from what I can see of it.

Brian ... nice and sharp looking F-104. No matter at what angle a STARFIGHTER is seen it always looks fast and ready too go. That interior looks very well done and detailed. I am one that always wants a figure in the cockpit, but I must say ... this one has no need for one. Nice work.
Nice build, great detail.
Very impressive Brian ! You really captured the look of a "Missile with a man in it"... The open canopy was well worth the troubles. It really helps to show off all of the details in the cockpit better.
F-104 is always a great plane, and this is a great model. Nice job!
Hello Brian,
Excellent build. Lots of highlighted details. Prize winner.

I'm really impressed! Great build, congrats!

Wow, very well done. In 1999 I was riding on a train from Naples to Rome and saw an F-104 flying overhead. It looked like nothing else in the sky.
