1/48 Hobby Boss Hawk T MK.127 - 76 SQD RAAF
Posted by Grant Dalzell on Monday, November 7, 2016 9:53 PM

I have built a heck of a lot of kits this year, but this one goes to the top of the list for ease of build and enjoyable. Well done Hobby Boss on making a cracking kit, and RAAF markings to boot!

The only problem is there are to many wing fences on this kit parts, so these need taking care of to make a RAAF version. I can see a couple more of these kit making their way in to my stash.

Painted with Vallejo FS.36675 Light Ghost Grey and FS.36320 Dark Ghost Grey. The black is 50:50 Tamiya semi gloss black and flat black. Weathered with Flory dark dirt wash.A coat of AK satin varnish finished it off.

The kit decals are beautiful, set great with a little Micro Sol

This is the kit- If you want a well engineered, enjoyable kit, get one of these.

 

And the final build

Very nice. We don't often see RAAF aircraft on this forum.

Really nice. I'm really beginning to like these anniversary scheme paint jobs.
