Hawk 75

So far so good 

Engine needs some help to fit where it should 

Cockpit washing done, ready to close the fuselage 

Behold the fit! 

Fit is slightly better on top. 

Top wings required sanding to look acceptable. The trailing edge still waiting for more sanding. 

The fit is challenging sometimes, to say the least. Luckily the exhausts will cover it a bit. 

Symmetry is not the strong side of this tooling. I don't hink I'd correct it - afraid to screw up the whole fuselage. 

The seam disappeared, time for rescribing. 

Exhausts cover the most of the biggest fit issue in the kit. 

Primed... 

... and ready for some rescribing. 

Checking the fit here and there... 

One of the most spectacular fit examples 🙂 

Even the box has errors - the cowling is camouflaged too, see the album cover for comparison. 

Wrong focus - wanted to show you the hand made gun barrels 🙂 

Too dirty, too much smoke during postshading 

Brightened a bit, but I'm gonna leave it in order to avoid more damage 🙁 

In the sun it looks way brighter than actually 🙂
