SuperSpitfire, Airfix FR Mk. XIVe
pacificmustang replied to bigbadbadge's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
A great result Chris Building this one st the moment I can definitely attest any fit problems you had were the kit and not you ! Not one of Airfixs better kits. It certainly needs more work than their other recent ones, but you’ve turned out a fine model Bruce -

Meng 1/48 F-18E Super Hornet
pacificmustang replied to pacificmustang's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Thanks Ron and Mick -
Meng's very nice Super Hornet. I found the model for the most, well detailed, with good fit of parts. The gun muzzle and tail fins can be painted off the model and then simply pushed into place. The cockpit is perhaps a little basic, but was fine for me, building with a closed canopy. The only let down was the decals, the stencilling being just random lines and black instead of the correct grey. Decals are from Afterburner and pylons from Phase Hangar resin A fuller description of the build is detailed in my blog attached to my signature. Thanks for looking Bruce

Op. Granby Jag. Intake colours
pacificmustang replied to pacificmustang's topic in Aircraft Cold War
It certainly does ! Thanks Julien -
G’day All I currently have a 48 scale Jag on the bench I’m fiddling with. It is to be finished as an Op Granby jet in desert pink. My question is what colour would the interior of the intake mouths be? dark green/grey as per the original camo, or would they have repainted at least the first couple of feet in the desert pink ? Thanks for any insight Bruce

Troy has you covered with his answer. If you’re doing JV o Z from the Hasegawa kit , yes, Port only light is correct Bruce -
Fly Models 1/32 Hurricane MkIId
pacificmustang replied to pacificmustang's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Thanks Troy, although I’m not really happy with my exhaust stain, it doesn’t really follow the airfoil of the wing that well Thanks Shaun -
G'Day All Certainly not the easiest model, but Im glad she's now done and residing on my shelf! I've always liked the Tankbuster Hurricane ever since seeing the ancient Monogram kit built to a high standard during my early teens. The model was built pretty well out of the box, although I replaced the cannons with brass tubing. The fit wasn't tooooo bad, but you need to ensure that the casting block is completely removed from the resin wheelbay. Even then there was still some sanding and filling required. All markings were painted on using home made masks from a mate. Stencils were also painted using masks from 1 man Army. Paints were by SMS A fuller description of the build can be found by following the link in my signature block. Roll on the forthcoming Revell Hurricane IIb! Thanks for Looking Bruce
