Dereknf Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 (edited) Something I've wanted to build for a long time was Phantom FG.1 or FGR.2 in the Grey/green camo. I wanted to do either a 23Sqn or 43 Sqn but decals seemed non-existent. The 1/48 kit is also difficult to find at a reasonable price these days. I found out that Hasegawa do a limited edition Treble One Squadron boxing so I ordered it from HLJ in Japan considerably cheaper than a Hasegawa or Revell was priced at in the UK. Anyway, here it is. Finished with a brush in Xtracrylix Dark Green and Dark Sea Grey with Light Aircraft Grey undersides. I changed the roundels for Xtradecal ones as the Hasegawa roundel red was too dark, too like the WW2 brick red. Thanks for looking Edited January 15, 2017 by Dereknf 31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon382 Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Phabulous Phantom! Rather glad you couldn't fine the right markings as I'm a bit of a fan of 111sqdn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harley John Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Well if you can't have a Fighting Cock bird then a Trembler bird just about comes close. Very smart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
