Hasegawa 1/32 F-104C Starfighter

Hi everyone! This is my Hasegawa 1/32 F-104C Starfighter, #60886 "Fannie", as she (more or less...) stood in Vietnam, 1965.The story of the Starfighter is well known: created as a day fighter by Lockheed as one of the Century [...]

Academy 1/72 F-104G Marineflieger

Hi everyone! This is my Academy 1/72 F-104G Starfighter, finished as a stand model. Germany received 916 “G” (for Germany) all-weather ground attack Starfighters in total. They were 2,000 pounds heavier than the original F-104, [...]

Lockheed F-104A Starfighter

An earlier build (early 1990s) and only photographed fairly recently at the Cameron Airport, the Testors 1/48 F-104A Starfighter is a very basic, simple old model. Originally, it was a Hawk release from 1957. I love these birds and [...]

I finally found the missing gas tank behind a book shelf! I actually completed this build about 9 months ago but could not find the starboard wing gas tank which was found just a few days ago as I did some rearranging of shelving. This was [...]

F-104J "Eiko" (Eduard 1/48)

This build has started with this bottle of wine more than a year ago. It was a present, and then I've realized that I'm keeping in my hands a wine produced by Gordon Cooper – a pilot, test-pilot, astronaut. And since then, I've started [...]

UPDATE - 1/32 Scale Italeri F-104G ASA-M Italian Air Force with real aluminum skin

Well here I am again in aluminum hell! I promised I wouldn't do another metal skin airplane for awhile but I got hired to do another one and I can't say no lol. 90% of the details are completed so it is on to all the metal work. I can tell [...]

Italeri 1/32 F104C Starfighter

This is my take on the Italeri F104C as it may have looked while operating out of Udorn, Thailand circa 1967. I did add a resin cockpit and seat plus resin afterburner/exhaust . Kit decals were used and they were excellent.
