I converted a Monogram F-101B
Voodoo in 1:48 scale into the Recce-Version of this famous fighter of the
sixties by using the resin conversion-set from C&H AERO MINIATURES. I
confess that this project was a lot of work and I had to spend around about 100
working hours until the Recce-Voodoo stood on my desk as shown in these
pictures.

C&H offers a
nice printed decal sheet for an aircraft of the 66.TRW, 18.TRS while stationed
in Europe during the
Cold War from 1958 until 1960. I myself, often
had the opportunity to see this wonderful airplane during Air-Shows at
Ramstein and Sembach here in Germany.
As usual,
I finished my model in a natural metal finish by using simple kitchen foil to
give this bird a realistic outfit just as the originals looked like. And
I think that I came close to it.
After all my
experiences with several conversion sets from C&H,
I can highly recommend them, if you
are interested in getting something special for your model collection.
