Smudge Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 After a protracted build, finally managed to finish this little Airfix 1/72 BAe Hawk T.1 Used some Model Art Decals for a FRADU aircraft and a lovely little brass pitot from Master. Was going to be a straight forward build, but I did get a bit carried away with some small details. Build thread Thanks for looking. 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todders Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 The main reason that I have never built a Hawk is because I can't decide what markings to do it in. I probably have 3 or 4 in 72nd and at least 2 in 48th. Yours looks very neat. The white wing tips and wing roots are a nice contrast. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smudge Posted October 11, 2020 Author Share Posted October 11, 2020 Thanks @Todders I chose this one because I felt the white markings added a bit of interest, compared to the more familiar all black. We certainly are spoilt for choice when it comes to Hawk markings. I do like the original RAF training scheme of red/white/grey and there are some interesting export customers, and of course some colourful display teams. Hard to choose Hawks are a pretty little aeroplane, good luck with yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Britman Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 Very nice indeed and wouldn't it be nice if a EDSG and white scheme aircraft was rolled out as a special. Keith 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, good idea. That would look smart, especially with a nice tail marking. Cheers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
