jasman71 Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 (edited) Well considering the amount of Hawks I have made I have been very slow in starting one for here, for various reasons.. Anyway, seeing as nearly all the facy colour schemes have either been taken or I have already made them in my collection, I thought I would go with a more conservative grey edition, as it's one of the few I haven't done that are readily available on external sheets. It isn't all that eye-catching but hopefully it hasn't already been done It will be XX331 of 100 Sqn in the 1990s, based at Leeming I apologise for a lack of build photographs up to this point, but it is in 72 scale using the Airfix Red Arrows release as a base. Xtradecal sheet 095 provides the markings. I will try to add a few more photos as I go along though. I'm not looking to win any prizes with it but I can be tail-end Charlie to the build I like getting my Hawks to this stage as I prefer the painting and finishing to the build process (especially when you've made over 30!) so I sort of consider this to be the blank canvas part Edited August 1, 2011 by jasman71 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasman71 Posted August 5, 2011 Author Share Posted August 5, 2011 little bit more done - a bit more decalling and construction of minor items. I also found that I have lost my humbrol 103 cream, no idea where it has gone, unless the carpet monster is not so fussy anymore? SO while I'm waiting for a new tin... panel lines picked out with a graphite pencil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasman71 Posted August 12, 2011 Author Share Posted August 12, 2011 Thankyou gents - yes I have 2 Red Arrows hawks on the go, and if you look at the far end on the bottom shelf there is also a black one unfinished. There are 12 foreigners there too, including 3x Hawk 200s. Got a few Canadian, Aussie,Swiss, South African and Bahraini ones to do yet too yeah I used the MA decal sheet for the Dragon hawk, but I think the same markings were available on an Almark sheet IIRC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
