That's so cool!! Is that the same kit as the Revell one?

Thanks Stuart! Yeah, the airport really enhances the models.Stuart wrote:That's an awesome looking Delta Gary and I love your airfield shots!
Thanks Medic! Much appreciated! I don't know the answer; I would expect that it is. Have you checked for the kit on Scalemates? Prolly have some info on it there.Medicman71 wrote:That's so cool!! Is that the same kit as the Revell one?

Re: Monogram Convair F-102A Delta Dagger
Yes, but you’ll have to check which issue it is. Monogram release both the Case X (early production) and Case XX (later production) wings on the kits. The basic difference is the shape of the wingtips and elevons.Medicman71 wrote:That's so cool!! Is that the same kit as the Revell one?

I was asking cause I built the recent Revell one and it wasn't bad at all to build.

That turned out great Gary! Really like the way the silver dope turned out. I'm thinking I may do mine in ADC Grey, still not 100% decided yet.

Re: Monogram Convair F-102A Delta Dagger
Beautiful job Gary! That brings back memories. I built one of these as a commission build for a guy who was the Senior Project Manager for this F-102 program. I didn't experience that much issue with filling and sanding myself, but then again, I never knew about any of that going into that.
Magnificent job once again!

We are modelers - the same in spirit, in hunger to insanely buy newly released kits, hustlers in hiding our stash from our better halves and experts in using garbage as replacements for after-market parts.

Thank you very much! I like the silver finish too, but ADC would be more typical wouldn't it?jelliott523 wrote:That turned out great Gary! Really like the way the silver dope turned out. I'm thinking I may do mine in ADC Grey, still not 100% decided yet.

Again outstanding modeling and photography. High performance on both ends!
