1/32 Trumpeter Republic F-105D Thunderchief (2010)
It is the most extended-scale model by its size I've ever built. I enjoy hand painting the weathering process by the finish stage.
Hobbyboss 1/48 F-105G Thunderchief
Hobbyboss' Thud kit is not a great kit. It is plagued with fit and shape issues, notably the cockpit components. Nonetheless, the model radiates much of the greatness of this fighter.
Given the large number of parts that require [...]

Hi everyone,
Another one of the mythological "century series",
An excellent model by Trumpeter in 1/72 - F-105D Thunderchief
A detailed kit at a reasonable level, quite accurate and without any construction problems.

HobbyBoss 1/48 F-105D Thunderchief

This is my recent project. There are few choices if you want an 1/48 F-105(D/G) so I went with HobbyBoss for this. I can’t say I didn’t know about its flaws. I’ll list them here, so perhaps I can give my contribution to [...]
1/48 Hobbyboss F-105G Thunderchief (80333)
This kit is overall very nice but there are a lot of very fiddly bits that test the patience. In particular, the flap assembly and the exhaust assembly are a bit challenging since there are so many parts with little or not mating [...]
F-105B Thunderchief, New Jersey Air National Guard 1965, Hasegawa 1/72.
Another moldy oldie, Originally I wanted to use the kit decals of 4th TFW, but they were mostly unusable. I decided to do an early NJANG pre SEA scheme. Besides spare decals I also used home made decals for the tail number for aircraft [...]
F-105D Marineflieger, 1/72 Hasegawa
What if the West Germans back in the day replaced their F-84's with the Thud instead of the F-104? Less fatalities, maybe, I don't know. I got this off the net, there was supposed to be a 'B'[ shorter nose] in the box but it turned out to [...]
Trumpeter 1/72 F-105G “Wild Weasel”
Here's my latest finished build. The build went together quite well, with the exception of the rear part of the fuselage that caused a lot of extra work... It was painted with Gunze Aqueous acrylic paints and the weathering was done with [...]
