1/48 Hobbycraft Cf-100

by Serge Dompierre

--------------------

 

The model is built OOb except  for nicely detailed Martin Baker MK 2 ejection seats in resin from Aeroclub Models  and some scratchbuilt items to upgrade the kit.  It's certainly one of the worst kits I ever made alongside with the P-61 Black Widow from Monogram.  It was painted with Humbrol silver no 11 and aluminum no 56.  The decals are from Skylancers which are beautifully printed, but very thin and fragile

The model represents an Avro Canada CF-100 MK- 5 of 425th Alouette squadron based at ST-Hubert province of Quebec  in 1958-59.
