Popular Post HartDeco Posted January 30, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 30, 2021 Hi all. My latest finished aircraft is Kinetic's 1/48 F/A-18A Hornet in Agressor colours. On the internet I found foto's of the actual aircraft which had some miss-matched panels that were probably taken from another airframe. Also, the paint was pretty worn in several places. This was the version I just had to build of course. Aftermarket parts used are resin exhausts from reskit, an ejection seat from Aires and the ALQ-167 pod from the AMK weapons set. Kit decals were used and everything was painted with Mr Hobby acrylics over Alclad black primer. Thanks for watching. René 108 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parabat Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 That's truly lovely, that last shot, low quartering away, is superb, you can just imagine the pilot walking up to it for pre-flight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
