The guy who acts as Secretary of my model Club, the Cardiff Plastic Aeroplane Club, is a 104 nut too. He put on a display last year, I think at Salisbury, of 104 F-104s, all RW as he hates whiffs with a passion.

There's something about that shape........
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

It's definitely a love or hate thing.

I always love it when someone picks one plane and does it in tons of colors and variations...This is really cool  :thumbsup: I hope to do the same thing someday with Tomcats, Maybe even one from every country...going to need a new house...

There's nothing crazy about a room filled with T-Tails!  I'd like to see some close-ups of your favorites from the collection, please.  Especially if you have any Whif's in there.   :wub:  :wub:  :wub:  :wub:

I know a guy who's done that with A-7s. He's got HUNDREDS of them, but all USN, so his place is wall to wall Light Gull Grey and white.

I think I'd prefer a tad more colour myself.......

The F-104 is IMHO always been as TOP GUN as the Air Force could Get!!!!!!!! look @ how many times the F-104 has been used as the Basis for Many Thunderbirds Aircraft Designs!!!!!!!!! Don't be afraid to Get Creative with Your Models!!!!! Stay Cool & Keep up the Great Work!!!!!!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :tornado:

Some obsessive-compulsives are not as bad as others.  :thumbsup:  :bow:

I don't see a USAF Thunderbirds one, or a VG one, or a biplane one. (Just tossing out some more ideas to help you add to your impressive fleet.)
