by Carlos Gomez on February 14, 2023 · in Aviation · 22 ≡

This is my recently completed TanModel RF-84 Thunderflash in 48th scale. Decent kit overall but there are a few fit issues that crept up in various places including the landing gear and windscreen / canopy fit. I used Rub n Buff silver wax [...]
