Revell 1/48 F/A-18F Super Hornet
Hello iModeler!
Here is my Revell F/A-18F Super Hornet. Good from afar but far from good… but learned more from this build than I did from my recent Tamiya builds. Exhaust cans are resin Wolfpack cans, decals are CAM Pro VFA-41 and ordnance is from the kit, Hasegawa and the spares box.
Thanks for looking!

Great looking A/F18F Super Hornet, Ramon! This is a great looking model and it doesn’t have to be seen from afar to admire it.

Thanks Bob, it was a bit challenging to fit together, especially around the nose, but I was not going to give up on it!

Love the mottled finish you achieved on this. A beautiful Super Hornet.

Thank you Greg! I used a variety of different techniques but mostly I got it to look like it does a la Bob Ross – a happy accident!
