There were quite a few hands went up at the meeting, so we might be over -manned! Maybe BM-ers need a special handshake or something.... So, will this little Hawk be done and on a table...?😃 I'm not a member I'm afraid, I've looked into it and sadly my closest club is just too far away. I was hoping to have it finished by next weekend (we are away for half term after that), but the stand is taking more time than the model😂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelliecool Posted May 20, 2018 Author Share Posted May 20, 2018 Further progress on the coffee lid....sorry stand! I have sanded the filer down, masked it up and painted it silver. Then I secured the plastic rod (a fishing float in its past life) into the centre and filled the hole. I am considering airbrushing a faded roundel on the top.......maybe🤔 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shelliecool Posted May 21, 2018 Author Share Posted May 21, 2018 Not so much a coffee jar lid now, more a coffee lid with a blue circle and plastic stick😂 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azgaron Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Looks like a nice idea to paint a roundel on the base! Håkan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shelliecool Posted May 24, 2018 Author Share Posted May 24, 2018 After varnishing the stand, last night I carefully mounted the Hawk into place and the build is complete. I wasn't overly keen on the kit, but persevered because it is a gift for my Mum....just hope she likes it! Thanks for joining me. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamden Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Nothing wrong with that build it looks stunning! Roger 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob Lyttle Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Great result. I remember when I was about 3/4 way through my build, thinking I really should do one wheels up and in the air. You've encouraged me to do it, and you've done it in style! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
