Tonight We Ride 1/32 F/A-18E Trumpeter

Post by PaulN » Sun Feb 28, 2021 8:15 am

Hi

Another Trumpeter F/18E much prefer this kit to the awful Revell offering...it fits for a start :lol: ( thanks Jon :lol: )

Finished as seen as seen at Hyeres on 13-06 2010 as 166650 AC-400 VFA-105 "Gunslingers" CVW-3 from USS Harry S Truman , there was excellent USN participation there that year :thumb:

Finished in Xtracolor , but with Humbrol gloss yellow to touch up the tail markings , it was a perfect match :thumbs: Decals are from Afterburner , what sort of surprised me was they spelt the word Tonight on the tail the English way :thumbs:

Thanks for looking

Paul :thumb:

Wow, Paul. Very nice subject and as always beautifully modelled.

Like the F18s, particularly when they have nice colour schemes
