It's Tomorrow #3

[Ian the Kiwi Herder]

First-up are two ongoing projects. The Irish Air Corps Hawk T1A using the Italeri kit and the free decals that came with a Scale Aircraft Modeling mag from the early eighties !. Eventually it will overall Lichen Green with dayglo orange trim !

Yes the Hunter F6 is from the real world, and yes it has moved-on considerably since this phot, but 'what the h*ll' !, It's the Revell kit with Xtradecals.







Next (and last for today) is the Spanish AF G91Y. A Matchbox kit with a LOT of filler and decals from the box, a Carpena Mirage sheet and left-overs from the Heller Mirages. Colours are all from the RLM pallatte. I figured the Spanish may well have found some left-overs from the Franco era ! - RLM02 Grungrau, RLM 78 Sandgelb und RLM 79 Hellblau.





Enjoy.

I've already comented on your Norwegian Hunter before but that G91 is just as nice.

Talking Nprwegian have you seen that there's a lot of new Swedish & Norwegian generic transfers on Hannants what's new pages

Cool colours on that G-91. But watch out....it looks as if it's trying to commit hari kari by sneaking of the shelf !

I'd keep an eye on it.......

Viva Espana our kid............o bloody ley.

RML colours.......(makes sucking lemon face ).....inspired.......( praise.... ooo.....that hurts)

Im glad you didnt choose late war Braun for our Spanish chums .....as the Canadians nicked it to use on  my Viggen      .....so the olive growing sons of fun didnt use it.

That G91Y is one nice looking plane!  I haven't been able to get my hands on a G91 in 1/72 yet, but I've always liked the looks of that little plane.  Very nice!

Now, just 15 more models, and it'll be a proper posting blitz

I love those Fiat jets - had the Airfix G-91 years ago, should track down another and get the wings aligned....damn youth! ^_^

Great stuff Ian! And if that Hunter    is progressing, where are the pics to prove it?

I'm intrueged by your approach to the masking/painting of that Hunter Ian.  I guess the fit of the Revell kit enables you to get away with painting the wings before glueing them in.

Hi Nev
Yep masking the colour scheme sort of dictated the build from the start, I wouldn't even think about doing it this way if it was a 'normal' scheme. I finished decalling and final construction over the last three evenings. I'll not get away with following the same sequence with subsequent camouflaged ones !!

 love the colours on the Gina, incidentally the 3rd model I ever completed (in all its unpainted grey/green Matchbox plastic finery)
