Revell 1/72 Hawk T.1 Group build chat

[Anatol Pigwa]

A word of caution: There us precious little space to put thr noseweight in. Plan accordingly or you'll end up with a tailsitter.

Blinking heck, forgot this started already.  I best get cracking tonight.  Thanks for the tip about the nose weight @Anatol Pigwa 👍

Thanks!  Also, can someone show me a picture of what the 19 Squadron tail end is supposed to be looking like?

Probably too late, but here you go John - 

 

If you look at my thread you can see the changes I've made for it.

Thanks Andy.  That is exactly what my kit looks like.  Nice picture.

I'm glad you asked that question, Stu. I've wasted a lot of time on the terrible windscreen and would really appreciate an extension also. 

 

How about it, Mr.Pureness?

Actually, I've just noticed the GB was down to end on the 13th when it should be the 14th, So I've asked Enzo for an extra 24 hours. I'm about to put the decals on mine tomorrow and then seal it all in. Going to be a tight finish for me too

Little H just glued hers all together and it’s sits on three. No nose weights needed, mind you her whole cockpit was fitted a little too far rewards.

Is the extension confirmed please @thepureness?

I've had to decal the kit today and final coat varnish it. I used a quick dry final coat and just managed to upload might today. Lucky its a what and I could choose what decals I used, but was a rush

[Doccur]

It’s both of our faults for leaving it late I guess 🙈

 

Managed to finish just in time! What a relief.

That's it peep. GB is over and that signals the voting is now down to the team at jadlam to choose their favourite builds. 

I've spoken to Russ who has said it should be anything from 7-10 days because of the Xmas rush at the business but we should get the results soon. 

[nimrod54]

Well done to all those who managed to get their builds over the line, and thanks to Russ and the rest of the team at Jadlam for sponsoring this event. I am glad that I don't have to pick a favourite from the finished models.

 

Cheers 

John

[HoolioPaulio]

Well done to everyone who finished.  Thanks to Jadlam for sponsoring, and to @thepureness for hosting.
