    G'day all. I've just put the final touches on the Royal Thailand Air Force F-16B from the 1/48 Hasegawa kit. I had a lot of fun building it and learnt a few things at the same time. Details are the Hasegawa F-16B Plus Fighting Falcon, Quick boost seats with Eduard ejection ring pulls, W&D Studio pitot and AoA probes, Mk82 slicks from the Hasegawa weapons set, AIM-9L from an AFV Club F-5E, Siam scale decals (meh... Not the greatest), Verlinden ground power and comms panel and homemade intake and exhaust plugs. The rear exhaust bung is made from Tamiya epoxy putty. And paints are the ubiquitous Mr Color. The front canopy section even has the smoke tint! Now to make the Polish Tiger meet version... Hope you like it. Cheers, Mick

    Hi Next old stuff from a shelf. Curtiss Hawk 75 N, a fixed u/c version of Hawk 75 (P 36) with 9-cyliders Wright Cyclone radial engine. It was done as scratch conversion of Monogram P 36 A which has rectactable gear and 14-cyliders Pratt Whitney Twin Wasp engine... So, some work has to be added - out of scratch. At present there are kit of this version in both 1/48 and in 1/72 scales. There are discrepancy in profiles of Thai Hawks 75s - some are presenting two colours from top, some other three (and in some cases two brown and one green, in another two green one brown). I was following some old profile, but I have not in my files full reference, I am sorry. The markings are from 5 Wing Royal Thai Air Forces, December 1941-early 1942 from war against French Vichy on side of Japan. Original photos of Hawk 75N are of poor quality, for example: http://www.ww2incolor.com/updates?g2_itemId=435859 All markings are hand paint on decals. BTW - the history of Thailand in WWII is interesting - one can read about it for example from Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thailand_in_World_War_II. They used both US and Japan airplanes (Ki-30 for example) and have three different national insignia...(one as unusual as white elephant on red field) Comments welcome Regards Jerzy-Wojtek
