Thai Hawk

One evening and a couple of markers - here's the result 

These modern kits are very smart... 

... though the fit is not always perfect 

Current state - end of day 2 

First serious glitch - the dashboard mounting is planned too high, so it collides with the windshield 

"Starter Kit" asking to drill below 0,2mm - I find it ridicoulous - glued the wires on the backside (for sure it's not 0,15mm wire) 

The fit of the windshield is not the best one, luckily easy to fill 

Another offering to the carpet monster - the thing is, I have no carpet in my man cave 

Hint for the future builders - sand the engine a bit to get smaller diameter! 

Sandy brown by Mr Color 

Light Ghost Gray by Hataka 

Added a mix of Kaki Francais & Light Polish Khaki 

Darker version - Wood Brown & Dark Polish Khaki 

I managed to break the canopy while trying to squeeze it in between the other transparencies - it's a bit too long, you have been warned. 

 

 

I just had to add the gunsight(s?) / surprised that the C&P pitot is actually made by Master / joys of  

Ready for matt varnish, the rigging went relatively quickly 

So, the more I fix, the more damage I keep adding 

That should work, I don't want to redo it again 

The molds left a prominent shift on the guns, so I decided to scratch my own outlets, so they have round cross-section 

I'm happy with the gun pods, now the last thing - only cowling guns are missing
