What if, when deciding the name of their new aerobatic team, the RAF had chosen to revive the Black Arrows name instead of the Red Arrows we know today? Last year I built an Airfix 1/72 Hawk to see what a Black Arrows Hawk would look like.

Another one of those where a simple idea is a good one - I like it!  ;D :thumbsup:
Oh to be whiffing again :-(

That is really nice looking, and I love the historical twist concerning the name.  :thumbsup:

Nice one!  :thumbsup:

111 Sqdn. is alive and well and based at Scampton in WhiffWorld.  ;D ;)
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

Not unpretty! Blue should also work very well?

It's like a mirror universe Red Arrow.  Pilot would have a goatee beard and they would perform "evil" routines.

Very good.
I'd also like to see Blue Arrows, White Arrows, Pink Arrows and maybe even a 7 plane build of the LGBTIQ display team the Rainbow Arrows.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Nice one - that's a really neat idea and it came out well!  :thumbsup:

Now somebody needs to do a Yellowjacks Hawk....

Didn't Radish do a Hawk in pink? I'm sure I've seen it at one of our shows.
