F/A-18C VFA-151 Vigilantes | 1/48 | HobbyBoss

Wow, the first shot is just amazing. Love the paintjob. Excellent weathering. One of best HB Hornets I've ever seen.

Did You do anything with the front canopy part? I've seen many Hobby Boss F/A-18's and Yours looks slightly different - not too pronounced. I'm extremely curious.

Two things You might want to correct, the antennae, as presented by Hobby Boss are too long for the A/B and early C/D Hornets. Especially the front antennae on the spine - it is much smaller than the rest. There should also be one under the nose. Also, the 164696 should've had the newer, slanted type. Hobby Boss unfortunatly did not provide the newer antennas.

Also, there is the area by the exhaust that sholud be painted silver.

Minor things don't take away anything from the completed model, great work!
