VMF211 Posted June 15, 2022 Report Posted June 15, 2022 Wanted to try some new paints and what better kit to practice on than this. I used Mr. Color Nakajima Dark Green, Mr. Paint IJNAF Cowling black & IJNAF Propeller color and Tamiya IJN Grey. As much as I like Mr. Paint, the Mr. Color was easy to spray also....I like it. The stand is Alclad Gloss Black Primer and I put some weights on the underside then covered it with felt....don't want to scratch a desk! The Hinomaru's are from an old MicroScale sheet I picked up back in 198? at my old LHS and the tail code is from a Hasegawa kit. An easy, fun, quick build to practice on.
ghodges Posted June 16, 2022 Report Posted June 16, 2022 Very nice! Pretty sure that old kit shouldn't look that good! Gil
Mark Deliduka Posted June 16, 2022 Report Posted June 16, 2022 Beautiful job on that old kit! yeah, I've built a few old Hawk kits, they are fun but tough to make look real good. You did a spectacular job on that one!
