WIP: 1/32 H-K Models Meteor F. Mk. 4 (test shot)
The H-K Models test shot of their new 1/32 Gloster Meteor F. Mk. 4 arrived Monday. Here is the result of about 3-4 hours of work today.
The surface detail is very petite and realistic, even moreso than the B-17. The kit is simple and fit is superb: I only used a little bit of CA glue along the centerline seam to make it disappear.
The kit’s really nice. I think it will be the first of a series of Meteors. No word on price yet, but it should be in the “affordable” range.

Nice kit. Are there a lot of inside details Tom?

Just enough in the cockpit to have one – since it’s black it’s no big deal. No engine, Neil’s going to let the aftermarket deal with that for those that want it. It’s a nice simple kit at a good price that looks good when done.

This looks nice, Tom, which colour scheme are you going to finish it in?
