Silly Week 2009

 

This was built for the What-if? group build on the ARC forums. A Hasegawa (F-2A) built as a Avro CF-166E Super Falcon. Canada all ready bought several squadrons of Canadair CF-188A/B Hornets for use in Germany but needed something to replace the aging CF(A) Skyhawks in use by 425, 433, 417, 419(Training) 414 and 434 squadrons.

The model is a F-2A painted in quazi CF-116 Freedom fighter colours using a mix of Hasegawa and Leading Edge decals.

Shot 7 shows my first attempt using standard CF-188 colours. Boring, so I re-jigged it.
