Nev Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 This was my entry for the One Week GB on the What If? forums (I came a creditable 7th out of 21, although I wasn't eligable to win, being the mod for the GB). In-progress pics can be found here Since then I've added the AAM-3 missiles, given it a wash and a little bit of weathering, and then a flat coat. Really happy with how this turned out in the end, especially considering I was hating it halfway through painting. T-4B Iruku, squadron hack of 501 Hikotai, JASDF Thats now 4 completed models for the year....just 4 :dum: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thx6667 Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 I had to do a double take because the Hawk 100 in Japanese markings does look very plausible and not unlike the Kawasaki T-4! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a kid I can remembe seeing pics of the Mitsubishi T.2 in Air Pictorial or something. Pointy nose, wings, tailplanes, twin engines... my six-year-old brain was convinced it was a Jaguar!
