Redstaff Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 Hawker Hunter F6 56 Squadron 1960 Built for the 60s NATO vs Warsaw pact GB It is the Academy 1/48 kit built OOB except for the SBS cockpit set as the kit one is totally wrong in size and scale etc. and it also has a metal pitot tube of an F6 Lightning as the kit plastic one was way too flimsy. Paints are Tamiya with MR Super clear coats, gloss for decalling then a satin mist to dull it down a bit with the gloss still showing as they would have been fairly clean and shiny. 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redstaff Posted November 14, 2018 Author Share Posted November 14, 2018 Thanks for all the positive replies guys I'm fairly happy with how it turned out, it's a lovely kit apart from the well documented cockpit scale issues, hopefully the Airfix one will be just as good I think it's nice to see something other than a Lightning or Tornado in Firebird markings for a change as the colours set it off quite nicely Thanks Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
