1/48 Hasegawa CF-104 Starfigters 

Chapter 3

by Shawn Phantom Weiler

--------------------

 

Here are some older Starfighters.  Again, they are all Hasegawa CF-104s.  Except the two seater which is a F-104DJ.  The single seaters are mainly OOB, the two seater had the bulges on the landing gear bay doors removed and was built WITHOUT seats.  Mainly because that is the way the real 12641 appears today at the Canadian Warplane Heritage museum in Hamilton Ontario.

104899 (the 3 tone cam) also has the Belcher bits weapons set, in addition to an after market seat.

104731 (one tone green) has the Verlindin Starfighter update set. Very nice stuff in the set.

The tiger bird is the only one built OOB.  Also by the dust (which I included JUST for VF-103 guy) you can see this model was built some time ago.

All of these Starfighters are built using the Belcher Bits decal sheets.  Its one sheet but you can build all these schemes from it.

 

I figure I have 4 more Starfighters to build.  I know what 3 of them will be.  No clue on the 4th.
