Missed this one till now, very good looking work Richard.

Neat paintjob, love the subtle pre-shading and great work on the decals.:smiling4:

Superb result, absolutely worth the medal.:thumb2::thumb2:

Thanks Fernando, Glad you dropped in for a look. If you like FAA planes...this one I recommend. Beautiful lines with the pre-Hunter look.

Cheers,
Richard

Yep, I know the lovely lines.:smiling4:
Fell in love with the Seahawk since I saw the one at the Dutch military aviation museum a long time ago..
Have the same kit as you and hopefully I’ll have a chance to build a MLD (Dutch Naval Air Service)version soon, just need to find the time and guts.:rolling:

You'll love it Fernando, the kit comes together quite easily. Only some sanding at the cheeks.
