1/48 Academy EA-18G - RAAF 6 Squadron Roll Out Scheme 2015

This is a pretty awful kit to work with, plenty of fit issues especially intake area. 

 

Decals are after market (Ronin Graphics Australia), I had difficulties with these as well, very thin and flimsy and lift off backing paper real quick.

Main camo is Vallejo Dark Ghost Grey and Light Ghost Grey. Other paints used Tamiya and Vallejo acrylics and Gunze metalizers. Weathering is a bit of post shading, Flory dark dirt wash and Tamiya weathering pastels. AK satin varnish finishes this one off.

Not my best work but I can bear to look at it as it has RAAF markings.
