Trumpeter's 1/48 scale
F-100C

by Tolga Ulgur

F-100C

 


Trumpeter's 1/48 scale F-100C is available online from Squadron.com

 

Description

 

This is 1/48 Trumpeter F-100C finished with Turkish Air Force markings. This F-100C 54-2083 is from 112nd squadron.

Reference picture is from Hans Konig’s archieve and taken in 1973 during a squadron exchange visit at Norvenich  Air Base Germany.

 

 

I have started from the nose of the fuselage .Nose section of the kit needs correction due to its wrong shape. To fix this I have used  AMS F-100 resin nose set.  On the other hand I set the horizontal stabilizators at moving position.

I decided to improve some other areas on the kit. This means new purchases which are:

  • Aires F-100C Super Sabre cockpit set

  • AMS F-100C Seat ( Due to inaccurate seat in  Aires cockpit set)

  • Aires F-100C/D Super Sabre Exhaust Nozzle

  • Aires F-100 Wheels

  • Aires F-100 Super Sabre Speed Brake (early)

  • Master 48-040 pitot tube.

Painting was done with Gunze Sangyo acrylics. Heat treatment of the metal in the afterburner section painted with different colors of Alclad.lacquers.

Roundels are from Turquoise decal set.
