1/48 Hasegawa F-18
1/48 Hasegawa F-18. I had originally bought this kit as a spares kit, I paid $5.00 US for it. I bought it from a friend who got it from the original owner. The original owner had attempted to build it using superglue and not sparingly either, after 4 months of cleaning, sanding and rescribing, then adding an aftermarket cockpit / decals, this is what I came up with.
Very nice save, Lloyd...I'll bet the "original owner" would like to have it back NOW. I assume those are decals?
well that wont be happening LOL, they are
Lloyd, well done! Considering what that kit goes for, even with the work you had to do, a bargain.
Amazing decal placement.
Nice save! I love the camo scheme. Nice F16's as well on the previous pages. Sorry I can't comment on them all, I'm on a rig with pretty slow wifi!
What a remarkable result! Your efforts have certainly paid off. Great finish to a good kit. What a bargain!
Excellent work on a beautiful scheme. Nice to actually make a silk purse out of a sow's ear, isn't it?
Way to bring it back to life! Love the scheme you chose, and she looks really good.
Wonderful
Remember seeing that 'in the flesh' 1989/90ish ?
