ZHOU Kun Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 This is my build last spring. F/A-18E/F Super Hornet is so popular that I decided to build it with an alternative way. That's the very reason i put it up on a brass rod, and have its landing gears modified as without ground load. Hope you enjoy it... 33 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spitfire31 Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 neil5208 says it like it is: Impressive work – the time and skills that has gone into the model, as well as the final result. In fact, my first impression (!) from the top photo was, Why has he photoshopped that pole on a full size F-18 taking off? 😉 Kind regards, Joachim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romeo Alpha Yankee Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Wow! I like that. The Hornet is a good subject to drop the gear like that with. You have done a great job on the build and weathering! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
