A fantastic build from modeller, Pierpaolo Maglio and his Luftwaffe F-104G Starfighter
The Lockheed F-104 Starfighter is a single-engine, supersonic interceptor aircraft which was extensively deployed as a fighter-bomber during the Cold War.

Adie Roberts continues his inspirations series to help inspire modellers of all abilities to work out of their comfort zone building dioramas or just trying new builds.

The Starfighter eventually flew with fifteen air forces, but its poor safety record, especially in Luftwaffe service, brought it substantial criticism. The Germans lost 292 of 916 aircraft and 116 pilots from 1961 to 1989, its high accident rate earning it the nickname "the Widow maker" from the German public.
