After a very long break in
model building I decided to get back into the hobby again with this kit.
I've always loved the F6 and the Hasegawa kit was nicely priced at a local
hobby shop, even better because they were 25% off! This model
featured a lot of new techniques that I had never tried before, most after
reading about them on this site.

The model
was sprayed with Model Master paints and then Future was applied for the
decals and sealing coat. The dirty wash on the bottom was my first
ever attempt at weathering an aircraft. I think I may have gone a
little overboard ,
but considering this aircraft sits exposed on the deck of
a carrier I kind of like it! The lights on the bottom of the
fuselage were painted using food coloring and Future, another first.
