Revell 1/72 Hawker Hunter P1109A – with FreightDog Conversion.
The Revell FGA.9 goes together really well and with the lovely conversion kit from FreightDog Models this builds up very nicely
Only a modicum of filler was required with only one bit of actual surgery.
This enables a completely ham-fisted i***t like me to put it together.
Primed with Mr. Finishing Surfacer 1500 Black.
Painted with,
Tamiya Nato Black, Rubber Black, Gun Metal, Clear Red and Clear Green.
Colourcoats RAF Roundel Blue Post War.
Xtreme Metals Aluminium.
Flory Dark Dirt Wash for the control surfaces.
Finished with Windsor & Newton Galeria Satin Varnish.
I can heartily recommend this conversion kit as an easy way to give you something a little different.
Thanks for looking,
Cheers,
Alistair
Very nice and quick build Alistair.
If you are ham fisted then I must be wearing boxing gloves.

Thanks Simon,
As always you are too kind.
Looks perfectly fine to me Alistair. No ham fistedness that I can see. The Hunter is such a beautiful aircraft.
Thanks very much,
I agree the Hunter has to be one of the most beautiful fighters ever designed.
Very nicely done conversion, I like it a lot.
Many Thanks
A wonderful Hunter in a nice scheme, Alistair @alistairfgauld
Seems like you are well in control of your fists.
She looks perfectly fine to me.
Thanks so much,
The resin conversion pieces were almost drop in.
That made things fairly easy.
Very nice, Alistair @alistairfgauld. The new nose really changes how the Hunter looks, plus a really nice paint scheme. Almost like wearing a tuxedo.
Thanks so much,
It does look like she's in her Sunday Best.
Sharp one, Alistair. Nice to see a Hunter not in camo.
She looks very nice with this colour scheme, Alistair, more of an evening dress than a tuxedo.
An excellent conversion and a fantastic result, Alistair!
Well done!
Very nice build!
