F-8 CRUSADER ''DEATH ANGELS''
Eduard model kit is a rebox hasegawa with resin seat and pe goodies for the cockpit.
Also resin wheels.
The model is perfect fitting with a lot of detail. Very happy to build and i would happy do it again.
The colous i used are
Gunze H-325 Gray satin (the same as H-315 but more glossy)
Gunze H-316
Winsor varnish.
I hope you like it.
Thank you very much

Outstanding! Beautiful looking Crusader
Thank you very much my friend!
Ditto, the cockpit and the ejection seat are models in and of themselves. Glade you took photos of the pit and seat separately.
Two thumbs up DIONYSIOS MOYKRIOTIS.
Thank you very much my friend and i am sorry for the delay of the answer.
Always a fan of the Last Gunfighter. Your model turned out really well. I do like the weathering as it fits the rough environs of carrier aviation.
Thank you Dan!
Nice clean work! I’ve liked the F-8 since I was a kid. Time to build one, maybe.
You must start immediately. hehe
It is beatiful kit hasegawa or eduard.
Fantastic achievement, Dionysios.
That ejection seat is indeed a work of art.
And the rest of the build as well.
Thank you very much John. Have a nice day from Greece.
Nice work and a super result.
I wish Eduard had taken the opportunity to include the necessary stuff to raise the wing properly, as 99% of Crusaders are when sitting there on the flight line. The only ones who ever did was Cutting Edge - a nice expensive conversion.
Tom the model have the up wind but i like the lines of the aircraft.
For that i made it low winds. Thank you very much my friend
Fantastic build all around Dionysios, that ejection seat could be a iMod post all on its own.
Great choice on the squadron and colours!
I've had my 1/72 VMF(AW)-235 Death Angels Crusader on my shelf for over 30 years!
Hasegawa kit I believe.
