Paint job complete and gloss coat applied. Ready for decals. |
Canopy comes clear and needs to be tinted. Head up display also needs to be tinted. I think I tinted the HUD a little too much here. It should be a slight, but noticeable green/blue. |
Exhaust petals. These were molded into the fuselage upper and lower halves and had to be cut away. Alclad metalizer applied. |
Missile bay doors come as one piece that has to be cut into two. |
Decals applied. |
Flag pennant was removed after roll out and a nose instrument probe attached. Instrument probe comes with the kit as an option. |
Colorful tail decals. When this aircraft was named, many folks thought Raptor was a dinosaur reference, but the word actually means "bird of prey." |
Missile noses need to be painted and bodies striped. |
