Eduard 1/48 F-104G Starfighter reveal

Post by MarkVerploeg »

Hi guys
So this is a gallery reveal for my F-104G of the Royal Netherlands AirForce of RNLAF for short
The actuall name would translate to RAF but there already was one (yes i am looking at you England :shock: :lol: )
Anyway this plane belongs to the 312th squadron based at Volkel Airfoce base in Noord Braband ,the Netherlands wich is close to where i live but the Starfighter was retired before i was born
The build was finished a couple of weeks ago but i seem to have to forgotten to post the full reveal so here it is

As you may have seen this plane has 2 squadron markings
The marking of the 312th on the tail and the lion of the 315th on the side
The pilot was the commanding officer of this unit before he was transferred to the 312

And this is all i have for this build
Thanks for stopping by and having a look
Take care and happy modelling
Cheers
Mark

Well atleast i know why the pics don't show up
Photo bucket changed their terms and now they want members to pay to get 3rd person hosting
And a forum is 3rd person hosting so they won't show up because i won't pay 4 dollars a month for something that was free for as long as i have been a member here on ISM
So i will have to look for an alternative for the photo's and edit all my threads as far as it is possible
I don't have all the pics on my phone anymore
