Now here is a sensible chap, non of that prissy pink stuff that @Hockeyboy76 keeps beating me over the head with. :rofl:

Tim is yet to learn the power of primer of pink. He was still digging in, while the rest of us were in the bar!

Decals going on.

 

for some bizarre reason the tail decal is longer than the tail fillet (I’d read somewhere that it’s the incorrect fillet ) - come on Revell, that’s just plain mad...unless of course I’m doing something wrong !!

With the Tonka build extended by 2 weeks the Hawk GB is the one snapping at our heels ...

Some X22/MLT over the top to gloss it up

some detail painting and last assembly to go - no real weathering to be done given they are kept immaculately- maybe a bit of soot behind the APU exhaust on the spine ....
 

some smoke ?

just a mock up but you get the jist!

 

maybe spray it the Oxford blue?

Just sorting out the last bits. masking left a bit of residue, wiped using WD-40, seems to work!

just need to put the lower antenna on and the smoke pod/pipes then it'll be done...

 

Got moving on the RAF T1A last night as well!
