1/48 Monogram CF-101 Voodoo

Gallery Article by Shawn "phantom" Weiler on May 10 2011

 

Here is a 1/48 Monogram CF-101 Voodoo, built (almost) completely out of the box including the kit decals. The one change was the rescue box on the right side. Kit decals have the American yellow and black box version where as the Canadian box is completely yellow.

This is my 5th Voodoo so I added the camera stand so one of these big interceptors would be in flight. Not a good fit for closing the wheel wells. Lots of putty and sanding required. The main reason I built her wheels up was because this kit was missing two tires. One small, one big. Found them a week later when I cleaned the basement. They are on route to a landfill by now.

This was done for the "On Canadian wings " group build. Oh, you might notice the seat one of the photos is taken on. That's from a real CF-101 Voodoo. Just keep one in the basement ya know. (Thanks again Tony)
