This is the old Hawk kit, in the Testors box with new decals. For a 1/48 kit it's pretty small. Detail is pretty much non existent, there is literally no interior to speak of except for a pilot figure holding a control column, but I have omitted him. The outline of the colour scheme is also engraved into the surface of the kit, so it's all been either masked and sprayed, or painted freehand. I knocked up a small base for it to sit on out of a picture frame and some floch.

Brad what did you use for your gloss coat finish? It's come up a treat!

Well I used gloss paints, so Humbrol red and Gunze black, I just gave it a quick bush coat of future.
