1/48 Hasegawa CF-104 Starfighter

This Starfighter (my 13th) was built for the ARC Missile with a man in it group build. It is the proposed scheme for the 1967 Golden Centennaires. This Starfighter did a dual act with a CF-101 Voodoo back in the day. This really must have been something to see and hear.

The decals are from Leading Edge. They also come with the markings for the Golden Centennaires CT-133 and Tutor. Those planes were indeed painted up in real life. Other add ons were the Verlindin ejection seat and the open brake chute door.

Adds a bit of colour eh?
