1/48 Academy Hawker Hunter

Gallery Article by David Pepper

 

This is my first time sending anything to ARC(or anywhere). This is my 1/48 scale Academy Hawker Hunter. The bang seat is resin because the kit seat is about 1/72! The gunsight and intake covers are scratchbuilt.

I used PolyScale paints on top and SNJ for the silver bottom finish. I also used the kit Stickers which are kinda thick. These decals laughed at Solvaset! There were a few things to fiddle with, but a fun build.

I've been fortunate to get a couple of firsts with it.
