This is my first gallery uploaded
to ARC. I've been modeling for about 15 years, and I figured it is time to let
more people get a gander at my work. This kit is the Hasegawa F-2A from the Aero
Dancing series. It is the same kit as the standard F-2 but
without JASDF decals, just generic stencils. That being said the kit went
together very easily. I was so impressed with the fit of this kit I purchased
the F-2B in 1/72 and 1/48. I don't think I used any filler on this kit. The
Blue on Blue paint is Tamiya, spayed via airbrush.

I applied decals in
typical fashion, following a spray of clear flat I then applied a wash of
thinned black paint. I like the look of the wash on a flat surface. Another coat
of clear flat and I then added the canopy and exhaust. I left the pylons empty
except the center tank. I may load it up later, but I didn't feel it didn't need
any weapons. I'm happy with the results, many people get stumped looking at it.
"Thats an F-16 right?" I get asked that often. "Nope its an
F-2." I reply.
