KEVIN'S SPACEX HAWK MODEL: NEARLY THERE!

Hi,


Probably last update before the model is finished. 

I have carved a piece of balsa to the shape of the canopy and then heated up a piece of clear acetate and pushed it over it to get the shape.




The pilot came courtesy of an Airfix Gnat jet trainer kit.

After painting the fuselage, I draw random panel lines on it with black biro. 

Weathering is achieved by smearing 2B pencil lead onto it and sealing with a light spray of clear lacquer. 

I use car striping tape, Letraset and model kit decals to add random detail. 

Nearly there now. 

Take care, 

Kevin
