Hi,
This
is
the Academy Hornet model. I used decals from Eagle Strike and got myself some
SMD-LEDs for the position and anti-collision lights. Also the 3 MFD screens are
lit and the HUD works too.
Some
additional photo-etched parts from Eduard are in the cockpit. Honestly there is
no need for the photo-etched armament set.
I
did a black painting first and afterwards a couple of thin layers in grey,
getting more and more colours on each panels from the engraved panel lines
inwards so the lines look kind of weathered…

The
formation lights were painted in Revell´s night color instead of using
the decals so in dimmed light or at night, all lights are working and the
formation lights look really realistic.
