    Yet again a top job Norbert. Nice unusual subject Andy

    Beautifully restrained weathering. Very well done indeed Andy

    Excellent set of pictures and a good story to go with them Andy

    Those photos are definitely painted but I can't imagine a JASDF crew chief letting his plane get dirty anyway Andy

    Quite possibly, although I have seen the windscreen issue mentioned online. Anyway, it is all filled now and awaiting rescribing, rivets and polishing Andy

    And both turned out beautifully Richard. An excellent job Thanks Andy

    The forward fuselage on mine (in pale blue plastic) was badly warped and the general fit of most parts was very poor. As examples, the holes for the alignment pins were too small and had to all be drilled out, the wing to fuselage joints had 2mm gaps, forward of the cockpit had a 5mm gap which had to be seriously forced to close, the windscreen was 3mm too narrow at the front and the underside was badly bowed and need a huge amount of filler to level it out. Lastly, the moulded detail is soft. Definitely, the worst kit I have ever built and that includes short run resin kits. Andy

    Stay away from the Revell Hawk. Very poor quality kit, Andy

    Fantastic fast build Norbert. It looks really great in these colours. Andy

    Great photos Ian. I'd forgotten how many we actually saw. There are so many on show, they all blend into one. Have a great Christmas Andy

    absolutely superb model Andy

    Another excellent model Norbert. Thanks for the explanation about the thrust reversers too Andy

    Thanks for the information PhantonBigStu. It is the bit inside the wing that I am concerned about, but from your photo it looks to be black unless anyone tells me otherwise. Andy

    Hi there, Does anyone know what colour the inside of the flap section is on a black RAF Hawk T1 please? The flaps themselves are black all over. Also, what about the colour of the air brake innards too? Thanks Andy

    Great job Rob Andy

    The MRP light blue is too light for the F-2 , but it matches the RF-4E scheme perfectly. Mr Color are perfect for the F-2 and not the RF-4E. I don't know about the other companies Andy

    Glad you liked it. Just buy the compound elsewhere as Yodabashi is the only place that does that. Andy

    The one in the Gangshan museum in Taiwan is painted black. Andy

    Great photos Ian. It looks like you were very busy in the museum. Did you get any walkarounds? 🙂 Andy

    Loving that mass flypast photo Latinbear. Great photos all round and wonderful memories. I'm looking forward to the next batch Andy
  25. Red Dot
    That was the plan! You can still see loads of F-5s as memorials as the Taiwanese never throw anything away Andy
