I’ve steered away from these Monogram F-80s.. Seems I’ve done it out of ignorance.. Opphh, your results are great, and I love the look of the teeth and fangs going into the inlets… Very cool scheme.

It’s still the best F-80, and with “some modeling skill required” will produce good results.

That’s a perfect build, John! I
love Monograms, though they require “some modelling skill” and I love see them built in such excellency!

Well done John especially from that old Monogram kit. A little TLC goes a long way. Love that base as well. Nice

That’s a great-looking build! The finish looks flawless. Well done.

Thanks Greg, it came out well, but I have yet you build a flaw less subject. It will hold it’s own under scrutiny for a 43 year old mold.
