Hahah yes I certainly have some specific interests! Not pictured are five conversion kits I've collected between the two planes so far, and a box of Voodoo aftermarket.
And 38, wow. I imagine you've built quite a few more, what's your pick for who makes the best one? I heard the recent Tamiya release was among the best models ever kitted.

Sorry for the late answer. TBH , they all have their ups and downs. The Hase is getting old and lacks detail but still renders a good likeness. Best for me is the Zoukei mura kit. It's just personal as the Tamiya kit is fantastic as well. I actually quite like the old italeri kit as a base for a decent model. It's cheaper than the Hase and the savings can't be spent on useful resin parts. Academy has taken the place of Hase as the go to for a decent well priced kit.

Oh yeah hahah, I'd like to know if other modelers have a singular obsession with a specific subject like I do with the Crusader. Maybe it was because it had its own episode on Dogfights and featured a lot on Area 88. It's just a unique and aesthetically pleasing fighter jet. The Sword RF-8 release got me more into building some 1/72 scale so I'm getting a couple Academy kits and decals too.

I've noticed something frustrating about this Aeromaster decal sheet. There's a section of red missing from the "T" shape on the F-8H option. It looks like only the black outlines have been provided and so the only option appears to fill it in somehow, be it paint or spare decal? Either way, I feel like it would be really challenging to get the color to match perfectly. Has anyone built this or done something similar? Is there something I'm missing here? It's a shame because this is a really cool option I'd like to build but I'd only do it if I felt like I could match the decal color perfectly.
