F/A-18C Academy 1/72 (12411) OOB build.
Finally managed to finish this hornet. Just a few notes some may find useful...
Planned on replacing included (in-house - not cartograf) Academy decals with print-scale 72-044 blue diamonds f/a-18c decals but was not able to do so due to dimensional problems with these decals and academy kit. Ended up using included academy decals.
I'm not sure if this is related to bad decal dimensions or kit dimensions but decals are few percent bigger then they should be for this kit and if you ask me useless for academy mold of hornet so avoid them if you intend to replace academy decals for this kit.
The only Hornet I've built before this one was Revell's (04894) repack of old ('80s) Italeri mold and Academy's mold is much much better compared to that one.
Vallejo acrylic paints and washes were used in the process.
Now the pictures...
