Rockwell T-2E Buckeye, Hellenic Air Force - Special Hobby 1/48


Recommended Posts

This is my current project and a very special one since it has to do with a jet trainer of my own country's Air Force. It's been a long time since I built a model in the colors of HAF so I am very excited about it and I intend to add as much detail as possible. It started in April 2015 and this is what I've done so far:

Wow...I like your work on this model! It is nice to see the way the photos are translated into the model space and how you choose what to represent and how. It makes the model look very convincing? :thumbsup2:

Hi Vags. I've not seen a Buckeye before, but this looks fantastic. I'm looking forward to seeing how the rest of the build goes.

Welcome to the forum and very nice work so far Vags!

Just one question, what do you plan to do with all those rivets the T-2 has? Looking at the first picture of the aircraft that you've posted, I notice that even from a distance some of them are still visible.

Keep up the good work!!!

Cheers

Shalako

Hi there, this is a small update. It took me quite a while to add all this detail to the electronics panel but now that it is finally there I moving on to the rest of the construction - eventually!
