With the understanding that this is a heavily doctored photo by McDonnell Douglas, I was thinking I might do this scheme for this GB. Or is this too much of a 'what if' ??

I received my F4Dable Models decal sheet for the Malaysian Hornets and they look great. The instructions are also really informative.

The only bad thing about them is that it's pretty much impossible to put the instructions back in the bag after you've taken it out. Yel06.png

I also got a hold of some DXM decals for the "Digital Hornet", gonna use it with my Revell 1/144 F/A-18E.

My back yard this morning. We have had 25% more snow than usual (so far) this winter, and the piles we have are not likely to melt until at least mid April. We don't have to put the leash on the dog in the back yard - there's no WAY he's getting out of the deep trenches where he does his business.

I too can hardly wait for July! I have a couple big Hornets to build, but I'm hoping I haven't pulled too many muscles from shovelling snow and slipping on ice... :pray:

I'm still trying to finish my entries for Bad Boy GB and A/NZ GB, and yet I can't wait for this GB to start! I've got soooo many Hornets and Super Hornets that I want to build. I can't even decide which one(s). Just picked up a Revell 1/72 F Super Hornet Jolly Rogers boxing today to add to the pile. Thinking of building 2x Super Hornet Jolly Rogers in parallel: 1x Hasegawa with AM decals (Jasmine, I think), and this Revell one. But, then I've got a few CONA schemes that I've been wanting to build for quite some time (1-2x "C" and the Growler). Choices... Choices....

What ever you do don't try and insert the Hornet into the hive of Hornets. They will know that there is something wrong with it due to size and the stripes going the wrong way on the wings. Lol Keep up the good work! Which kit is that you are building? I don't recognize it!
