Antony Robertson Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 These both look great Mark, I've just ordered the decals in 1/32 scale, the T.2 ones are for the Kinetic kit winging my way. Antony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AirfixAndy Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Great builds Mark and shows the big differences between the two marks of Hawk .......Im quite surprised at how different they look ! Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark M Posted January 15, 2013 Author Share Posted January 15, 2013 They're made by xtradecal and both are on the same sheet. You do need to get a sheet of stencils to go with them, as they're not supplied on the sheet.Antony they are on the same sheet for 1/72 i think but these are 1/48 and they are on 2 different ones im affraid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odd that they've split them in 1/48. Antony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Callahan Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Mark: Interestingly, I have literally the exact same two on the workbench at present (in 1:72). They do look attractive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark M Posted January 22, 2013 Author Share Posted January 22, 2013 well i better add the new ones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkkeeper Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 they are tidy, just one observation, the wing roundels are to far back, they shouldn't impinge on the aileron hinge line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark M Posted January 22, 2013 Author Share Posted January 22, 2013 See i thought that but the instructions on both say different i should know better and check refs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkkeeper Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 (edited) just noticed the no step area box, that should be right up against the fuselage/wing joint, suspect the instruction info is a bit incorrect, shout me anytime, I work on 14 of these everyday, pics if you need them are no problem, only thing is mine are all gloss black. with ref to the topside roundel, one of the vortex generators on the wing leading edge is actually in roundel blue so fairly well inside the blue area. I'll take my camera in tomorrow. Edited January 22, 2013 by Hawkkeeper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark M Posted January 22, 2013 Author Share Posted January 22, 2013 thanks the no step box on these decals is far too small, compared to the reall thing and other decal sheets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkkeeper Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 (edited) took 4 photo's of the starboard upper wing roundel, a overall view & some closeup's so you guys can get a better position on your UK Hawk models. you see the rear edge of the roundel is well forward of the mainplane/aileron hinge line Edited January 24, 2013 by Hawkkeeper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julien Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I work on 14 of these everyday, pics if you need them are no problem, only thing is mine are all gloss black. Any chance you fancy shooting some walkaround images for the walkaround section? By the way is there a decal or something for the MDC in 1.48 for the hawk canopy?

Hawkkeeper Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 possibly, I'll PM you my work address, send in your CV to my boss, we could do with some more airframe/Propulsion fitters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bear13583 Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 (edited) Just finished my one of these but i deviated slightly to include camo on the upper wings and stabilizers. Just to give a more WWII appearance. I love what your doing with your collection and has inspired me to start my own especially as I found that you can put a 72nd Airfix hawk together in a few evenings and Xtradecal do such a fine range of schemes.

Hawkkeeper Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 I like that, looks better with camo tailplane, don't know why the original wasn't done like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bear13583 Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Thanks Hawkkeeper. I love the display schemes on the hawks and markmarples thread is awesome but just felt this one didn't look right in the flesh and needed the extra camo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
