MarkSH Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 Here is a recently completed entry for the Hawker (Siddeley) Group Build; Trumpeter's 1/48th Hawker Seahawk FGA.Mk.6 a beautiful aircraft IMHO. The kit is OK straight out of the box which is basically what I've done, a few scratched extra items in the cockpit plus a Pavla seat. There are some errors in the kit and some well documented mis-aligned panel lines and also some debatable shape issues, but overall an enjoyable build except for the decals, but then that's a situation normal for me. The build thread is here: Cheers thanks for looking. 33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkSH Posted May 27, 2018 Author Share Posted May 27, 2018 Thanks for all the comments guys much appreciated, BTW @bigbadbadge there is another Sea Hawk build going on in the Carriers Ahoy! GB by Basilisk who is performing some pretty radical accurizing of the Trumpeter kit, definitely worth a look. Cheers, M. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thud4444 Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 Great model of an attractive plane. Any problem areas? The WIP looked pretty straight forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only areas I struggled with was the fit of the front fuselage and the decals as is the norm for me you may have gathered that I'm not generally a fan of decaling at the best of times but the Trumpy stripes for the fuselage band were particularly bad and very quickly found themselves in the bin. Other than that it was genuinely an enjoyable build. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
