Well got mine started
I'll have some piccies Later

Well I was up late last night and early this morning
So I have decided to use a PE Colour set on this one
the pit was fairly easy to do ( Nicked the wifes Jam Jar Glasses)
just a case of Revell No 9 and Glue to stick on the PE
But to be honest the kit did include decals for this , but for the price the PEset was worth the hassle
Also in the Kit it included seat belts , what a pain in the Arse these were to put on
But there again worth the effort
But all that hard work only to discover you don't see that much of it now its inside the fuselage

Anyway Enough chit chat heres some pictures

WoW! Cockpit done already!

That coloured PE is neat stuff. You'll just have to have the canopy open to show it off.

cheers

Grant

That cockpit looks excellent

Oi, you guys making all these little models - that's cheating! Full marks for getting straight off the blocks Sean.

Cheers Guys
Damn I love doing these 72 birds , well i'll have some more pics later today

Well Some progress
Its been a while but here goes
I sprayed the whole plane with Tammy Flat Aluminium
then left it for about 6 days
then yesterday i sprayed the top half with Humbrol enamels Dark sea grey and Dark green
left it to dry for a few hours , then brushed on a couple of coats of Johnsons Klear

Today I started some decalling and decided to go with the 74sqd markings
heres my progress still got loads to do

Classic aircraft, classic squadron. She looks really good Sean.

Cheers Guys
None of you commented on the Fine job I did on the canopy
I'm Just been pinting it by brush
With those I'm not too bothered about overpainting , because i clean it up with a toothpick
plus i'm pretty crap at masking

I decided on 74Sqd because of the F4J(UK) I did a few years back
hopefully i'll have more progress soon

OK Sean... you did a Fine job on the canopy...

Looking good Sean, What ever happened to people calling it a cocktail stick, now every one calls it a toothpick
Great new smileys

Hi Sean,

Your Hunter has come together very well, and I hope that you've been able to finish it and will soon display the results. Great cockpit too, by the way. It sounds like you've really enjoyed building the Hunter, which is the whole point! Any chance you could post a pic or two with the F-4J when you're finished?

Cheers,

Andrew.

Yep no problems Andrew
Got a lot done I'll try get up some picturesof the Hunter tomorrow
As its my eve of my 2 days off red wine comes 1st

Great kit and great fun to do plus my first time with PE on a 1/72 kit
Decided to go with 74Sqd decals ( to match my F4J(UK))
I used mainly Humbrol Dark green and Dark Sea Grey
