1/72 Revell Hawker Hunter F.6

Hey Guys, this is one of my 1/72 Hawker Hunters, the first one that I've build from the Revell kit.  It's a very good mold which builds into a very nice aircraft.  It's built straight out of the box, using Revell and Humbrol paints.

The squadron badge and serial decals that I used are from a pretty old Dutch Decal Sheet, no. 72020. since this is a older one, the decals we're pretty thick. (so I used a whole lotta Microsol) Roundels and all other stenciling came from the Revell kit decals.

The original airplane was based at Soesterberg Air Force Base, and served with 325 Squadron during 1959-1967.  The squadron has since been disbanded.  I've built the Hunter in a Quick Reaction Alert version, armed with live AIM9B Sidewinders.

I hope you like this one, and, if you have any comment, feel free to send me a email

 

Cheers!
