Hi Finn, I tend to work on 3 to 4 projects at a time, today I worked on the Spaceship from The Invaders, but should get back to the Hawk next week.
I am hoping to do the Orange version. As I did the white one with the Airfix version.

Last of the spraying and a couple decals
Next weathering, I prefer pencils to a pin wash, yes a pin wash brings out details, but I find it to heavy unless I am doing ground vehicles.
But it is only a personal preference, there are no rules on how you do your model. ๐Ÿ˜€

Now completed and I must say its a very good kit. Nice easy to follow instructions. I made this as a straight out the box version so as to compare with the original Airfix version I built. Both are very good kits, easy to construct and you get a nice model at the end. The MPC/ Round2 version is a lot more accurate. ๐Ÿ˜€

A beautiful result. I am a big fan of the first season series on television.
