Revell 1/32nd BAE Hawk as a Hawk Mk.166

By Leon Wohlert

I present my Omani Hawk MK.166. Not my cleanest build ever, mainly due to the somewhat botched weathering. She still looks good on the shelf!

The kit itself presented no big issues. Fit is a bit off here and there, but all can be fixed.

Modifications:

Reskit wheels
Reskit Seat
Reskit vortex generators on the wings (bloody hell..)
Fin emblems, canopy sealant strips and registrations made with laser printer and Silhouette cutter
Replacement pitot tube made from brass rod
Added the two tiny pitot tubes on the nose as present on Mk.166s

I did forget to paint the middle inside canopy frame black.

For more information on the, check out my build thread in the Work in Progress forum.

Such a pretty cammo...

Cheers!
