James COff to a nice start mate. I've got the Pro-Modeler re-boxing of this kit so will be following😉👍

Clifford Keesler AutorThank you very much, your kind words are much appreciated. I found a photo-etch set for this kit in my stash of PE after I finished the Pit. But I have several more in the stash. So it will not go to waste.

Clifford Keesler AutorWelcome Ben, Konrad, Maciej and Patryk. I will try to not let you guys down. Finished all of the re-scribing today and started the main wheel wells.

MathieuThese old monogram are pure gold speaking of details in cockpit and wheel bays. The just need a little love if you wanna go the scribing way.
Nice tribute to your father, would you mind posting pictures of his bird if you have some?

Slavo HazuchaJoining the crowds, good luck on this family heritage project - can´t miss!
And a really cool start witht the OOB pit, that´s about as far as an OOB pit can be taken, and in my personal opinion, better than some flat PE-versions take it! Great detailed paintjob 👍

Clifford Keesler AutorThank you Patryk. Fit is not bad. Just required some on the wing roots, and the intakes will require a little.

Nathan DempseyAlready some nice progress here. Glad I didn't miss out. Great work on the cockpit & wheel wells.

Clifford Keesler AutorThank you very much James. Had to apply a little putty to the intakes, will clean that up tomorrow. Weapons bay is all painted, I will temporally install the closed door for painting. Working on the Falcons now.

Clifford Keesler AutorGot this one painted, except for the nose and exhaust. Wepons and gear are all painted.

Nathan DempseyAgreed. Nice pre-shade. Can't wait to see the main colors and decals.

Clifford Keesler AutorIt is all painted now, except for the exhaust area. Gave it a clear coat so the grey won't peel when I mask off the tailpipe. Thank you all for your kind words.

Clifford Keesler AutorIt has legs now and the weapons are installed. I will start decals tomorrow.
13 March 2021, 00:12
Clifford Keesler AutorDecals are started. Super Scale decals are a pain. They rip very easy, I will have to do some minor touch up painting on the red and black checker board on the tail.

Album info
I am building a replica of my fathers F-102A Delta Dart, stationed at Kadena AFB Okinawa/Japan in the early 60's. So markings will not be the aircraft pictured on the box art.
