Vought F-8 Crusader

Sword 1/72 RF-8A.

Hasegawa 1/48 F-8E Crusader

In the real Crusader aircraft the panel lines are not so obvious. Yet, I made an exception to enhance the 3D feel of this classic naval fighter.

F-8E CrusaderAcademy 1/72

Monogram 1/48 F-8E, MiG-killing Crusader

My latest effort is the old, but solid, Monogram 1/48 F-8E Crusader. This classic from Monogram features average fit, with (mostly) accurate outlines and shapes. It has raised panel lines, which also appear accurate compared to drawings [...]
