wkennerley Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Well this is going to be an interesting build - I have decided on a triple build, number 1 is the Revell FGA9 to be built using the kit decals as an RAF plane based at Brawdy in the late 1970s, number 2 will be the old airfix FGA9 as a Kenyan AF plane, using the Xtradecal set X72063, number 3 will again be an Airfix FGA9 as a Royal Rhodesian AF plane, during the Federation of Rhodesia & Nyasaland (ie 3 assegai's on the roundal) - No aftermarket as yet, though I am bidding some Aeroclub bang seats. I also have an airwaves etched cockpit, but having struggled with one before I don't think I will use it in this GB Wayne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graeme H Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 hmmm, I make it 12 days since you started, and you have camo on already, like Paul says you could enter a blitzbuild at that speed, looking good though, and some really interesting schemes, looking forward to them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wkennerley Posted March 3, 2012 Author Share Posted March 3, 2012 (edited) hmmm, I make it 12 days since you started, and you have camo on already, ...... Actually it was only about 7 days from start of the GB - Busy decalling the RAF plane at the moment Wayne Edited March 3, 2012 by wkennerley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wkennerley Posted March 11, 2012 Author Share Posted March 11, 2012 (edited) Right first plane finished, the other two will be awhile as I need to find stencils for them - I did notice (after painting the model) that the red did not actually cover the whole rear of the fuselage, or at least it did not when the photo I found was taken.

wkennerley Posted May 3, 2012 Author Share Posted May 3, 2012 Well that was quicker than I thought Pics below of all three builds - I will definitely look at acquiring more Revell hunters they are great builds Wayne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canberraman Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Wayne A tremendous effort and a trio to be justly proud of. The Revell Huntetr is one of the nicest kits I've built in 1/72. Regard Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
