Sinx Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 I’ve just finished this, completely OOB and am quite pleased with the result ... it was finished to represent as closely as I could the F2.A at East Fortune, which was once flown by Squadron Leader Roger Chick, my former Flying Instructor who sadly passed away a few years ago. It was done for a challenge at work - all the members of the team currently redeveloping two of the hangars at East Fortune were challenged to built a model of one of the aircraft to be displayed in the hangars once they're complete - we have around 12 people taking part, most of whom are complete novices, so it should be interesting when they're revealed tomorrow! Apologies for the photos, done with an iphone in less than ideal lighting. Martin 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Les Moore Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Excellent work...I've built two on different schemes (1 NMF, 1 grey over NMF) because I can't find out what colour green they should be. Yours looks spot on. Colour please and brand of paint?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinx Posted December 17, 2014 Author Share Posted December 17, 2014 Les, the paint was Tamiya XF13 - possibly not entirely accurate but it was what I had available!Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
