From the basic Hawk, I
scratch-built the following:
-
-the nose.
From a 2-seater to a 1-seater (contoured with putty and molded into
shape)
-
-the canopy. From the box and
sawed in half and filed into shape. (I’ve yet to learn how
to scratchbuild a canopy).
-
-the antennae on the vertical
fin and strakes. Made from plastic strip and spares.
-
-fixed refueling probe. From
stretched sprue and spares.
The (incomplete) decals are
from the box and Italeri’s 1/72 F5E plus a RMAF decal produced in Malaysia.
