1/72 Italeri F/A -18F Hornet

--------------------

 

This kit from Italeri was the first on the market for a Super Bug, so it is very inaccurate. It’s missing the “Rhino’s horn”, it has the baby hornet’s airbrake and the wing pylons are parallel to the plane. But it was a good exercise while the good kits arrived.

I used TwoBobs decals with VF-41 “Black Aces” markings and I used modelmaster paints and coatings. 

The missiles are from the box and the LGB’s are from Hasegawa’s weapon sets.
