Naked Tiger Meet F-104 custom new pics

Post by pokeyjtc » Sun May 04, 2008 9:23 pm

I thought that I would do a custom of what the Tiger Meet F-104 would look like before/after it got to wear it special Tiger Meet 'outfit'. I did paint the wingtip tanks in my own scheme, but I don't think it's too far out of line with what you might have found on the plane back in the day. Enjoy the pics,.

All of the paint for the plane is testor's spray paint. I used Testor's gray primer for the base coat and Testor's silver for the bare metal. The blue, red, and white are Testors gloss colors.

That's sick!

I want mine to look like that. Those tiger stripes are gaudy and are starting to hurt my eyes.

Naw, I love that plane, I just want your scheme on mine. If only I could paint.
