jonwinn Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Another one that has been in the closet long enough. I finally found decals by Print Scale and tonight I added the landing gear and wheels and painted the tail wheel and tail hook. I did a bit of scratch building for the ejection seat, I made the canvas cover for the Yankee Ejection seat from tissue and white glue, and small plates on the cowl, I believe they are exhaust diffusers to keep the oily exhaust from the wind screen.

Hajo L. Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Is that a reboxing of the Airfix A-1? Looks much like it... Keep on the great work! HAJO Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jonwinn Posted November 29, 2022 Author Share Posted November 29, 2022 (edited) No, it's Hobbycraft, no connection to Airfix molding. It actually was first molded by Tsukuda Hobby in 1980s, Hobbycraft reissued it in 1990s. Edited November 29, 2022 by jonwinn Quote Link to post Share on other sites
