How is your progress? I m going down the same path as you, I have completed 1/72 Intruder, Prowler, 2 x Seahawks, S-3 Viking. Currently working on an E-2C Hawkeye 2000. All that i mentioned are in "folded" configuration, either scratched build or wolfpack resin

The Hasegawa kit which I have in the stash is a 1988 kit. It has the sundowner boxart and the decals sheet has turned yellow. I ve been bleaching it under the sun for the pass 2 months. Decals seem to be normal now. I m planning to turn the Academy kit to a D model. And will use this old kit as a Top Gun Tomcat once I receive Maverick VF-1 decal sheet.

Thank you for the very detailed field report in the kit. I have decided to put everything back into the box and back on the stash shelf. Will go ahead with the new academy kit instead.

Dude, how is your build coming? I m about to start on mine and it will be a low-vis scheme in 1991 colours. i m planning to merge the foldable wings from the Italeri 1/72 Intruder kit onto the hasegawa fuselage. Fingers crossed 🤞. I just completed the Italeri 1/72 intruder kit. It was quite easy to work with, though there was some fit problems. It was manageable

Hi Bar Side, That would be a great idea. I think IRIAF would have a collection of his photos. They use to used them :) I hope we can open a thread of his works.

Its sad that photobucket is preventing his photos from being shared here. The late Mr Shammas has one of the most stunning diorama works.

My entry would be the RMAF Hawk 108. Base model will be the Hobby Boss 1/48 Hawk 100, with some mods made on the countermeasure dispenser from a spare Airfix kit. Decals from VFA production.

Amazing work. Looking forward to your next update.

Any idea what's the smoke squadron internal gear bay colours? White? I assume the landing gears are white.

Kursada, I have received the decal, found green and blue from tamiya and yellow from gunze

Kursada, What's the ETA on the smoke decal?

I m picking up my kit on Friday. Cant wait.

Any recommended Gunze Sangyo colours for the smoke squadron?

Mine will reach me end of the week

Where can I order this?
