Hubert Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 (edited) Hawker Sea Hawk of 810 Sqdn Royal Navy, embarked on HMS Albion, 1956, Suez Crisis. Painted with MRP paints. Model Art Decals. I didn't correct anything, I didn't add much from myself. The model is hard to recommend to accuracy fans. Nice fitting, but the technological breakdown itself, shortshots, those miserable inlets and outlets, the canopy ... well, it leaves a lot to be desired. I like the early British jets. They are ... human made, a bit strange, capricious, but they have something about them. I hope you like it!

dromia Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Manufacturer? Scale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vulcanicity Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 I'm guessing it's the HobbyBoss 1/72. It's a very nice job, I remember enjoying this kit apart from the stupid parts breakdown that leaves a seam line across the exhaust shield which is very hard to smooth. You seem to have done very well at it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobby No Mac Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 That's turned out really smart, cracking job I've got this kit x2 and that's definitely one of the schemes that I want to do. Did you paint the invasion stripes or use the kit's decals? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the Indian/German Navy boxing anyway, so no stripes were included in the decal sheet. Thanks for comments! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Dave S Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 You've made a lovely job of a bad kit. Much better than mine turned out. I love the paintwork. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
