Airfix 1/72 Red Arrows Hawk. A quick build!

[spanner570]

I bought this for the sum of £6.50 incl. p/p. Apart from the kit, it includes the 'awful' paints, so called gloopy glue and cheap brush. I intend to use all of them.

Here's the box art. I forgot to take pictures of the sprues.:upside:

Old, basic kit, nice pilot detail though.


No fuss instructions.




Cheers

Nice one Ron, is it going to be just an OOB build ? Or is it going to be something different?

[Jim R]

I will sit at the side with my recycled coffee and a chocolate hob-nob. Dark chocolate naturally.

[spanner570]

All most excellent and funny posts. Thanks chaps.

Welcome along Ian M. The build will be that short you won't need a second cup of coffee!

Ian (papa 695). Not a great deal was in the box anyway to be honest!

Due to my deviousness and downright sneaky intentions I had to do things a..e about face, i.e. submit the 'Flyby' before the build. Absolutely unforgivable behaviour......

Cheers all and thanks again for the 'Crack'

Pilot and cockpit done. 2 pilots supplied, only one needed.
No detail to the cockpit. No loss, 'cos for me, life's too short to do stuff that will never be seen......I ain't knocking folks that do mind.

........complete with a good dollop of loose dandruff!


Cheers.
