1/32 Revell Hawker Hunter

--------------------

 

This is the Revell 1/32 Hawker Hunter built straight out of box. I have build models cars for many years but this is my 1st article on ARC and is only my 2nd airplane kit. This kit was very well engineered, all parts fit without much filler needed. The final shape does represent the gracefully line of the hunter.  I used Gunzee acrylic paint and weather with oil wash.

Only problem with the kit was the kit decal disintegrated when soaked in water. I ended up spraying the whole decal sheet with Tamiya TS-13 to make them usable. Of course this makes the decal a lot stiffer and result in some silvering problem.

Anyway, hope you enjoy this model.
