After finishing my build for the Krap Kits GB I thought I'd move on to something nicer in the shape of a Revell 1/72 Hunter FGA.9.

Oh yes, the best Hunter kit in 1/72. Looking forward to this.

What are you thinking for the scheme Tim?

Indeed, Revell's Hunters are probably the best in the scale. There's plenty of choices on that decal sheet by the looks!

I was thinking of doing it as per the box art.

I've been slow off the mark with this one but I do have some progress to report. I started by painting the cockpit interior and, instead of using the supplied decals, I gave the panels a dry brush.

After that the fuselage was closed up and the nose and tail sections added.
