Hasegawa 1:72 Grumman F11F Blue Angels

[Kevin Callahan]

Restarting one of my earliest attempts at a sub-project: Blue Angels aircraft. Next in line was the F11F. This is the elderly Hasegawa kit, with somewhat brittle blue plastic that didn't take sanding very well. It was a relatively recent Blue Angels boxing, so the decals were newer and usable. I painted the wing and tail tips since I just didn't see a decal version working out well. All paints Xtracolour. 

 

Once I get my display cases sorted, I'll be taking some group photos of these sub-projects, and the Blue Angels will definitely be one of them. 

 

This is completed aircraft #505 (3 aircraft, 1 ordnance, 0 vehicles for the year 2019), finished in February of 2019.
