1/32 Trumpeter F-18E

Gallery Article by Chris Parsons on May 13 2010

 

The kit was built from the box with the kit decals with no problems encountered with...anything.  (Way to go Trumpeter!!)

I now have enough weapons left over to supply a small 1:32 scale airforce (a shoebox actually).

I did change up the seat with a resin example bought for but never used in Academy's F18 D, and the instrument panel which is a spare left over from the Academy F 18D. Not technically correct but I don't really care, it looks great.

It's painted with Polly Scale and Tamiya acrylics with, for a change, very little weathering, almost showroom new.

Hope you like it.
