Revell 1/48 F/A -18 Hornet

December 7, 2012 · in Aviation · · 6 ≡ · 2.6K

This is the old kit, from 1990. I built it several years ago, and recently got around to photographing her at the airport. I did use an aftermarket decal set, the SuperScaleInternational set 48-346. It's pretty much built OOB, with just a few added details. Once again, another "four-footer"!

    Excellent...just excellent, Gary - and the photographic effect really "sells it".
