RAF Sabre Mk 4
This is the Hasegawa 1/48 scale Sabre Mk4. I built this when it was first released in 2004.
Built straight out of the box, including decals with just the seat belts added. Aeromaster acrylic paint was used for the camouflage colours.
Markings are for No 112 Squadron RAF.

I’m a real dope for a Sabre and it has to be said that she looks terrific in these beautifully rendered colours. And with a shark mouth...spoiled.
‘Liked’...a lot.

Thank you George. I agree, there have been some great roundels over the years. Canadian, Australian, South African to name just a few.
