Another instalment in my CF-104 series.  This one is a tribute to both my 
late father, and my uncle, who flew these aircraft for years.  The 104 was 
definitely their favourite aircraft.  This example is done in the earliest 
scheme - bare metal, with the white tailplane top surface.  Decals are from 
Belcher Bits, as are the underwing pylons and camera reconnaissance pod on 
the fuselage centerline.

I used Alclad Aluminum (polished aluminum overall, with the duller colour 
for the area around the tailpipe), sprayed over a black base coat.  The 
results are actually quite nice, but I think I still like bare metal foil 
for natural metal finishes.  I will be building a two-seat version (from the 
training unit in Cold Lake) soon in bare metal foil.  I found the Alclad to 
be a little difficult to work with - masking tape had a tendency to lift off 
the Alclad paint.

Note that the left fuselage has the 3 Wing crest - this Wing was in Lahr 
Germany, where my uncle flew these aircraft the most.
