Here are some new
Super Hornets and a good old F-3 Demon.
The Super Hornets
are both 1/48 Hasegawa built OOB. Only add ons are the Two-Bobs decals and
masking tape seat belts. The light blue is how the plane was delivered from the
factory. Some in the squadron did not like it. Same deal on the ARC discussion
board. Some liked it others did not.

Well long story
short. Couple months later the squadron repainted it with a darker blue. The
darker blue one also has been built with folded wings. This option can also be
done OOB. Everything you need and instructions are very simple and right there
in the box.

These bottom shots are of my
Grand Pheonix F-3 Demon. Not at all an easy build. Actually I ripped it apart
twice during its build. The resin is beautiful but the instructions are
really lacking. The poor instructions and a lack of reference material went hand
in hand in the complete tear down and rebuild of this one. However at the end of
the day the build still turned out good.
Should you build it make sure you
use one heck of a lot of nose weight. This one is VERY tail heavy.
