You should build an E-2C Hawkeye,it's a cool plane for your collection.

Hunter Cummins
Im trying to get one lol

B
Heres a nice one: Ebay.com Item - 1 72 FUJIMI GRUMMAN E 2C HAWKEYE VAW 115 LIBERTY BELLS DECALS RARE

Hunter Cummins
Brandon,
I want that one so damn bad now lol
one problem, I cant order off of ebay :'(

B
Seems like eBay is your only option. That's a very nice kit at a low price. On online hobby shops it goes for around 50-60 bucks.

Hunter Cummins
I know it is
I wish I had acess to ebay

B
Why can't you?

Hunter Cummins
Parents wont put credit card on ebay

B
Oh,ok.

Hunter Cummins
Yup
It sucks

Clifford Keesler
Another E-2 Brandon, you are getting as bad as me with F-14s.

B
It's an addiction....I also got a giant decal set for all of the E-2s in the Atlantic fleet. It's only 20....😢

B
Also,how do you not love this aircraft? It's such a beautiful plane. 🙂😉

B
It's here!!!

David Lengyel
Looks awesome, I am going to follow your build!

B
Take a seat David,I think there's some left in the front row.😉

B
Pics are up

Clifford Keesler
I love the E-2 but it has to be 1/48. You are off to a good start.

B
Thanks Clifford 😄 1/48 is too big. Atleast for an E-2.

B
More pictures 😄

Hunter Cummins
I like it so far 🙂

B
Thanks Hunter 😄

Clifford Keesler
Looking good.You are tearing through this one.

B
Thanks Clifford. It's got 60 or so parts,also I'm on school vacation so that's all I really do.

Redcat

B

B
Thanks Jose!! 😄

Jose Miguel Rodriguez
You´re wellcome Brandon. My next aircraft will be an E-2, but from Hasegawa mouldings 😉

B
I'm looking forward to see that. Will you do the 1/48 or 1/72?

Jose Miguel Rodriguez
1/72 Brandon. I don´t know yet the markings.... may be US Navy or Mexican Navy

B
The 1/72 one is such a nice kit. You'll have no problems putting it together. Either markings that you choose,it'll come out great. I know it will. 😄

David Lengyel
It's not that big after all 🙂 Note: I am encouraging myself to build 1/48 😄

B

Dietmar Kollmann
It looks like easy to build. It´s also in my stash. Nice project.

B
Thanks Jose! 😄
Dietmar,it's quite a nice kit. It goes together very well but you'll need putty on the usual places that are on most aircraft kits.

B
New pictures! Decaling has started! (28-31)

Hunter Cummins
Good job decalimg 🙂
it fits snuggly into those panel lines

B
Thanks Hunter 😄 I use Micro Sol,it melts the decal into the panel lines.

Hunter Cummins
