Excellent work Nev!!!! I can't wait to see how the next one comes out!
Try not. Do. Or do not. There is no try.

Thanks for the kind words guys.  This weekend I've gotten some stuck back into Hawk #1

First job was to paint the extremeties orange (used Halfords Volkwagon Orange), then several coats of light ghost grey



Only, I forget to do the tips of the tailplanes  :banghead: So I had to mask them up, and to save time, I used clingfilm to protect the rest of the airframe ;)



Masking is removed, et voila!



Hopefully get this finished by next weekend.......

Looks good so far Nev, like IHG says, keep it coming! B)  
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Decalling completed and panel line wash applied (maybe a touch too heavy in places).  Still on course to finish this weekend  :thumbsup:

Thanks guys - but I don't think the 3rd one is going to get done :(  Didn't realise how close this GB was to finishing

I keep shaking my head on those builds.  Damn those are REALLY nice!  Plus I'm slightly jealous that I didn't think of those first!
