This is the HobbyBoss 1/48 scale Hawk 200 built as a Royal Malaysian Air Force Hawk Mk. 208.

The model was built out of the box and painted with Gunze lacquers. Decals were also mainly from the kit decal sheet but I used national markings from decal-la and printed the pilot name and mission tally on the nose. The hawk marking on the tail was also slightly altered to more correctly match the markings on the real aircraft. 

It was a very pleasant kit to build, with crisp details and good fit overall.

Happy Merdeka 2018.
