The Mohawk is not a glamorous aircraft by any stretch of the imagination. I got it as a starting point for a German WW2 asymmetrical fighter similar to the BV-141. And soon after I got the Mohawk kit, guess what Hobbyboss release... So, the Mohawk was a "Stash Queen" for a few years. After the huge Scooter diorama (https://www.far148studio.com/portfolio-2/greekscooters), I told myself the next project will be simpler. Project Mohawk like all my builds will be a "What-if". Not sure what nationality it's going to be, but it will be a target decoy launch aircraft. The only major changes I'm going to do to the airframe is new props and spinner, which are done. I have a ton of resin aftermarket for this project. Such as ejection seats, exhaust, pylons, wheels, cowling correction, various scoops and vents. Along with the decoys are mastered, molded and I've pressure cast a few resin copies.

Terrific looking build :bow:
Beautiful. That thing looks spot on. Yes, maybe she's not all that glamourous, but man, can those things dance through the sky ! Too bad the one on the circuit over here is crashed and gone.....
I was at Oshkosh airshow a long time ago and there was one for sale. If only I had piles of stupid money laying around!
That looks magnificent! :thumbsup:
Beauty job! :thumbsup:
Many thanks for all the wonderful comment. I really appreciate it :thumbsup:

It should be said that your Mohawk build inspired me to added the targeting pod to the nose of mine. Thanks for the inspiration!

I never started it but I do have HobbyBoss 48th BV-141 in my stash. It's one of many future projects.
Cheers,
Steven
