It looks great to me. Both white and red are difficult colors for me to spray and it looks like they turned out fine on yours. Glad to see that you gave acrylics a fair chance on something that turned out very well.

Completed T-45A Goshawk with Tamiya acrylics!
Posted by plasticmod992 on Friday, September 30, 2005 5:17 AM
As promised, I wanted to give you all a look-see at my my T-45A painted entirely in Tamiya acrylics. This was an effort to decide weather to move away from acrylics or to still with them, reference my last post on the subject. This is Italeri's 1/72nd scale Goshawk, in which I corrected minor inacuracies, displayed the model in-flight on a custom-made stand, and applied custom markings. My T-45A wears markings to represent VT-21 "Red Hawks", Training Wing-2, from NAS Kingsville, TX. This was the new Goshawk's first cruise onboard the USS Forrestal, during 1995. The US Navy currently flys the upgraded T-45C which have all digital displays (glass cockpits). Not bad for Tamiya acrylic! Hope you like.
