I am pretty happy with it, even though there are some things that didn't come out as i wanted them to.
I had to leave a bit of the scheme out of the equation because the Hawk's wing is so much smaller than the T-6's.



I guess i could still try to fit the aluminium spots/stripes on the wings and stabs now that i'm free from the GB's deadline...   :rolleyes:  ;)

I used to have a MK2 Capri which was metallic midnight blue..god that car looked amazing.
Ive seen the black hawks and i dont know if its the shape or size but they look boring in black and im no fan of red..freaking hate red  :lol:
But blue..a little cracker of a plane in blue..the prefect choice.. :thumbsup:
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

Ya, metallic midnight blue... :wub: and i also like the Capri.  :mellow: :thumbsup:
I'm also not a fan of red but i like black... maybe it's the kind of markings on the black ones, i bet that with the right kind of paint job, you'd like them more.  ;)
