Brickie's Malay Hawk >>DNF<<

Post by Brickie »

Well, since my last quick build turned out so well, and I can pretty much build a Hawk in my sleep these days, I'll do another one off my Hawks In Worldwide Service sheet.

The kit is the new-tool Hawk 100 series, the boxing with the demonstrator decals, which I'll be doing in Malaysian markings and a Boring Grey colour scheme.

The advantages of unemployment. There have to be some.

Also, these new-tool Airfix kits are pretty shake-and-bake.

Briiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing. Times up. :lol:
A valiant attempt to try and fit another Hawk into your display.
Hope to see this finished when you get your air brush sorted out.
