Nice looking Hawk, Peter! I have the same kit in my stash. What colour did you use for the cockpit and wheelwells. I was debating about scratchbuilding the wheelwells too.

Even an old kit still has its charm, if he, as here beautifully built. 👍

Thank you for the kind comments!
After some research I learned that pre-war "silver-wing" US ARMY planes often had NMF interiors, therefore I painted the cockpit interior in silver.
Since I decided to represent this plane "in flight", I mounted the gear in retracted position (with some epoxy putty sculpting because the kit is intended to be built only with the gears down), this way I avoided the detailing of the wheelwells 😉
