A drawing I did of a CF-188 in it’s early days of service. The aircraft visited our local airbase quite often for gunnery camps in the mid eighties and that is how I depicted it.

Hello all, Here is my dual build I started on here back in November as an WiP (clicky linky thready). Was my first use of resin, not too sure if I like it or not yet. I had a lot of trouble with F-18D with the varnish going tits up and "frosting", possibly the weather, possibly a dodgy can most likely my lack of skills. I tried to put a wash on it, but it was wiped away when I went to clean it. I'm guessing the panel lines where not deep enough. On to the pictures! Model : Revell F-18D Hornet VMFA-224 "Bengals"... Scale : 1/144 Decals : Kit ones Paints : Vallejo and Humbrol primer Extras : RetroWings F-18 "legacy" control surfaces kit and RetroWings F-18 Cockpit I missed that massive patch of wash on the horizontal stabilizer, and typically didn't notice until the varnish had been put on and dried... go figure... Bugger... missed that arrestor hook too... not having much fun with this one eh? I've left it glossy, because I didn't wanna mess up the varnish again... Model : Revell CF-188A (F-18C) Hornet No. 410 Squadron, Cold Lake CFB Scale : 1/144 Decals : Kit ones Paints : Vallejo, Mr Hobby, Tamiya and Humbrol primer Extras : RetroWings F-18 Cockpit, Flory Models wash. I took a tip from JMChladek and used Tamiya smoke paint in the wheel wells to give them a bit of definition. Kinda like what the result was, guess I will just need to learn what I like by thinning it down a bit. Least the arrestor hook is painted in this model Thank you for looking, be as brutal as you like. Kind Regards, Dazz
